Correct Answer & Explanation
Option A
Let's analyze the pattern for 'DOCTOR' to 'EPDUPS':
• D → E (+1)
• O → P (+1)
• C → D (+1)
• T → U (+1)
• O → P (+1)
• R → S (+1)
The pattern is a simple +1 shift for each letter.
Now, apply this pattern to 'NURSE':
• N → O (+1)
• U → V (+1)
• R → S (+1)
• S → T (+1)
• E → F (+1)
Therefore, 'NURSE' is coded as 'OVSTF'.
