Let’s look at the pictures in order.
Top row:
1. A whole red apple.
2. The same apple, but someone took a bite out of it.
3. Only the core is left — all the flesh is gone.
4. A girl blowing bubbles with bubble wand — this doesn’t match the apple pattern. It seems like a distractor or extra image.
Bottom row:
1. A full milk jug (with cap on).
2. A glass filled with milk.
3. A girl drinking from a glass of milk.
4. A boy eating ice cream — again, doesn’t fit the milk pattern. Probably another distractor.
So what’s happening?
In the top row, we see an apple being eaten step by step: whole → bitten → core only.
In the bottom row, we should see milk being used step by step: full jug → poured into glass → drunk from glass.
That makes sense! The sequence shows something being consumed over time.
The last picture in each row (girl with bubbles, boy with ice cream) don’t belong to the main sequences — they’re probably there to test if you can pick the right pattern.
So the correct matching is:
Apple sequence: Whole → Bitten → Core
Milk sequence: Full jug → Glass of milk → Drinking milk
Final Answer:
The images show two sequences: one of an apple being eaten and one of milk being drunk. The correct order for the apple is: whole apple → bitten apple → apple core. The correct order for the milk is: full jug → glass of milk → girl drinking milk. The other two images (girl with bubbles, boy with ice cream) do not belong to these sequences.
