Solution
The capitalized pair "MURDER : CROWS" refers to a specific term used for a group of crows, which is a "murder". Therefore, we need to find a pair where the first word is a specific term used for a group of the animal mentioned in the second word.
Looking at the options:
- Down : Hares - Incorrect. "Down" is not a term used for a group of hares.
- Swarm : Gnats - Correct. A "swarm" is a term used for a group of gnats.
- Herd : Colts - Incorrect. While "herd" is a term used for a group of animals, it is not specific to colts.
- Siege : Hippopotami - Incorrect. "Siege" is not a term used for a group of hippopotami.
So, the answer is "Swarm : Gnats".
