This is theoretically possible because ping pong balls are filled with air and are much less dense than water. By filling a sunken ship with enough ping pong balls, you increase the overall buoyancy of the ship, allowing it to rise to the surface. This principle is similar to how submarines use ballast tanks to control their depth, and demonstrates Archimedes' principle of buoyancy.

In August 1942, Mahatma Gandhi launched the Quit India Movement during the All-India Congress Committee session in Bombay. This mass movement demanded an immediate end to British rule in India and marked the final major push for independence before World War II ended. The slogan 'Do or Die' became associated with this movement.

The relationship is 'Cause : Negative Consequence'. Just as smoke causes pollution, war causes death. This analogy follows a cause-and-effect pattern where the first word leads to an undesirable outcome. Other options like 'VICTORY' (positive outcome) or 'ENEMY' and 'ARMY' (participants in war) don't represent the negative consequence that war inherently brings.

The relationship is 'Medium : Person in Charge'. A newspaper is led by an editor who shapes its content, just as a film is directed by a director who controls the creative vision. While actors, producers, and audiences are involved in filmmaking, only the director parallels the editor's role of being primarily responsible for the content and direction of the work.

The relationship is 'Disease : Affected Body Part'. Prorhea (likely a misspelling of Pyorrhea) is a dental disease affecting the teeth and gums, just as Trachoma is an infectious eye disease that can lead to blindness. This medical analogy pairs specific pathological conditions with the primary anatomical regions they impact.

The relationship is 'Subject of Study : Name of the Science'. Cytology is the study of cells, just as Ornithology is the scientific study of birds. Mycology studies fungi, Etymology studies word origins, and Odontology studies teeth - none of which relate to birds. This is a standard '-ology' branch of science analogy.

The relationship is 'Famous Championship : Associated Sport'. Wimbledon is the most prestigious tennis championship, just as the Walker Cup is a premier biennial amateur team golf competition between the USA and UK. The other sports listed (polo, wrestling, football) have their own famous tournaments, but none are associated with the Walker Cup.

The slogan 'A Diamond is Forever' was created for De Beers in 1947 by the advertising agency N.W. Ayer & Son. This campaign is considered one of the most successful marketing slogans in history, positioning diamonds as essential symbols of eternal love and establishing the tradition of diamond engagement rings. De Beers is the international diamond corporation that popularized this concept.

The relationship is 'Female relative : Female relative'. A mother has a daughter, just as an aunt (sister of one's parent) has a niece (daughter of one's sibling). This follows the parallel female lineage pattern. Nephew would be the male equivalent (aunt's nephew), sister is a sibling relationship, and cousin is gender-neutral.

The relationship is 'Body part : Associated bony structure'. The back has the backbone (spine), just as the belly (abdomen) has the navel (umbilicus) - though the option spells it 'NAVAL', which appears to be a misspelling of 'NAVAL' meaning navel. Ribs are associated with the chest, heart is an organ, not a structural element. Despite the spelling error, the intended answer matches the claimed correct option.

The analogy asks: what is to PILLOW as FLOOR is to MAT? A mat rests on a floor, and a pillow rests on a bed. The relationship is 'smaller item rests on larger supporting surface.' BED provides the base for PILLOW, just as FLOOR does for MAT.

Ferrari is an Italian luxury sports car manufacturer founded by Enzo Ferrari. While it began as an independent company, it became part of FIAT (now Stellantis) in 1969 and remained under their ownership until relatively recently. Alfa Romeo, Benz (Mercedes), and Ducati are separate automotive brands.
