The correct example of a part to whole analogy from the given options is:

wheel : car : : leg : caterpillar

Explanation:

  • In the first analogy, a "wheel" is a part of a "car," and similarly, a "leg" is a part of a "caterpillar." Both pairs show a relationship where the first item is a component or part of the second item.

The other options do not fit the part to whole analogy as clearly:

  • watch : time : : pages : journal relates a tool to what it measures, not a part to whole.
  • audience : movie : : terror : scream relates a group experiencing something to that thing, not a part to whole.
  • pen : write : : books : library is also about function and usage rather than a part-to-whole relationship.

Thus, "wheel : car : : leg : caterpillar" is the correct analogy.
