In pair $B$ $(Horse : Mare)$,the term $Horse$ is a general term for the species,and $Mare$ is the female. However,$Stallion$ is specifically a male horse,$Colt$ is a young male horse. Thus,the relationship in $B$ is different from the others as it compares a general category to a female,whereas the others compare a male to a female.

(C) In the given options,the first word represents the study of the second word.
- $Ornithology$ is the study of $Birds$.
- $Mycology$ is the study of $Fungi$.
- $Phycology$ is the study of $Algae$.

In the pair $(Clerk : File)$,the clerk works on the file,which is an object,not a person. Therefore,$(Clerk : File)$ is the odd one out.

(D) In the pairs $Mercury : Sun$,$Moon : Earth$,and $Star : Galaxy$,the first object revolves around or is a constituent part of the second object in a celestial system.
However,in the pair $Wheel : Axle$,the wheel rotates around the axle,which is a mechanical relationship rather than a celestial orbital relationship. Therefore,$Wheel : Axle$ is the odd one out.

Specifically,$Crime$ leads to $Punishment$,$Enterprise$ leads to $Success$,and $Exercise$ leads to $Health$.
However,in option $B$,$Judgement$ and $Advocacy$ are related processes within a legal context,but $Advocacy$ is not the result of $Judgement$. Therefore,$B$ is the odd one out.

(D) In the pairs $A$,$B$,and $C$,the first component is an alloy used to manufacture the second component.
$Steel$,$Bronze$,and $Duralumin$ are all alloys.
However,in option $D$,$Iron$ is a pure metal (element),not an alloy.
Therefore,$Iron : Rails$ is the odd one out.

(B) In the given pairs,$Hard$ and $Soft$ are antonyms,$Sweet$ and $Sour$ are antonyms,and $Pointed$ and $Blunt$ are antonyms. However,$Long$ and $High$ are synonyms or related dimensions,not antonyms. Therefore,$Long : High$ is the odd one out.

(D) In the pairs $A$,$B$,and $C$,the second word represents a higher intensity or degree of the action described by the first word.
$1$. $A$ (Flurry : Blizzard): $A$ flurry is a light snowfall,while a blizzard is a severe snowstorm.
$2$. $B$ (Moisten : Drench): To moisten is to make slightly wet,while to drench is to soak thoroughly.
$3$. $C$ (Prick : Stab): To prick is to make a small hole,while to stab is to pierce deeply.
$4$. $D$ (Scrub : Polish): Scrubbing and polishing are two different methods of cleaning or finishing a surface; neither is necessarily a higher intensity version of the other.
Therefore,$D$ is the odd one out.

(B) In the pairs $A$,$C$,and $D$,the second word represents an expert or a higher level of the first word. Specifically,a $Student$ becomes a $Scholar$,a $Soldier$ is a $Warrior$,and a $Politician$ is a $Leader$. However,in pair $B$,$Paddy$ is the raw crop and $Rice$ is the processed product obtained from it,which does not follow the 'expert' relationship. Therefore,$Paddy : Rice$ is the odd one out.

(B) In the pairs $A$,$C$,and $D$,the second word represents the primary function or action performed by the tool mentioned in the first word.
- $A$ $Needle$ is used to $Prick$.
- An $Auger$ is used to $Bore$.
- $A$ $Chisel$ is used to $Carve$.
- However,in option $B$,a $Gun$ is a weapon that fires a projectile,but 'Fire' is not the primary tool-action relationship in the same sense as the others,or more specifically,the $Gun$ is the instrument and $Fire$ is the action,but the $Gun$ itself is not defined by the action of 'firing' in the same way a tool is defined by its specific craft function. Actually,looking closer at the logic: $Needle$ is a tool for $Pricking$,$Auger$ is a tool for $Boring$,and $Chisel$ is a tool for $Carving$. $A$ $Gun$ is a weapon,not a tool,making it the odd one out.

(D) In the pairs $A$,$B$,and $C$,the first person is the leader or head of the group mentioned in the second part.
- $A$ $Captain$ leads a $Team$.
- $A$ $Boss$ leads a $Gang$.
- $A$ $Prime Minister$ leads a $Cabinet$.
- However,an $Artist$ does not lead a $Troupe$; rather,a group of artists forms a $Troupe$. Therefore,$Artist : Troupe$ is the odd one out.

$1$. $Broad$ and $Wide$ are synonyms (they mean the same thing).
$2$. $Tiny$ and $Small$ are synonyms.
$3$. $Big$ and $Large$ are synonyms.
$4$. $Light$ and $Heavy$ are antonyms (they have opposite meanings).
Therefore,the pair $Light : Heavy$ is the odd one out.

$1$. $Wood$ is the raw material used to make $Furniture$.
$2$. $Pitcher$ is not a raw material for $Pottery$; rather,$Clay$ is the raw material used to make a $Pitcher$.
$3$. $Gold$ is the raw material used to make $Ornaments$.
However,looking at the relationship of 'Material : Product',$Twigs$ are used to build a $Nest$.
Upon closer inspection,$Pitcher$ is a product made from $Clay$,whereas in all other options,the first word is the material and the second is the product. Therefore,$Pitcher : Pottery$ is the odd one out because $Pottery$ is a category or craft,not a specific product like $Nest$,$Furniture$,or $Ornaments$.

(C) In the pairs $A$,$B$,and $D$,the first word represents a fictional character associated with a specific genre of literature or film (Donald Duck for Comedy,Sherlock Holmes for Suspense,and Robinson Crusoe for Adventure). In pair $C$,Premchand is the author (writer) of novels,not a fictional character. Therefore,$C$ is the odd one out.

(A) In the pairs $Eye : Blind$,$Ear : Deaf$,and $Leg : Lame$,the second word represents the state of dysfunction or inability to perform the function of the first organ. However,in the pair $Tongue : Taste$,the second word represents the primary function of the first organ. Therefore,$Tongue : Taste$ is the odd one out.
