1. The problem requires selecting the correct figure to fill the question mark in a 3x3 grid based on patterns in shape, arm position, and head features. 2. Analyze the rows and columns for patterns: - Row 1: Figures differ by head accessories and arm positions. - Row 2: Figures vary similarly in body shape and arm posture. - Row 3: The last figure is missing, so deduce based on patterns observed. 3. Identify the consistent differences: - Each row seems to alternate oval and rectangular bodies. - Arm positions alternate between straight and bent. - Head features cycle through specific accessories. 4. Based on observed patterns, figure 5 fits best as it matches the missing cell's expected characteristics. 5. Therefore, the correct choice is figure 5.
