Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Let's count the total number of large open circles () and small solid dots () inside the grid matrix for each figure:
* Figure A: circles and solid dots.
* Figure B: circles and solid dots.
* Figure C: circles and solid dots.
* Figure D: circles and solid dots.
Let's look at the arrangement rule (Symmetry vs Asymmetry):
* In Figure A, the open circles form a outer frame structure with dots inside (Symmetric layout).
* In Figure B, there is an alternating vertical column pattern of open circles and solid dots. Each column is uniform.
* In Figure C, the circles form a stable pyramid triangle stack structure at the bottom, and the solid dots are distributed symmetrically at the top.
* In Figure D, the elements are shifted asymmetric blocks where the solid dots completely fill the left bottom column, while circles fill the right top block. It lacks a balanced alternating or layered global geometric matrix symmetry found in the other three configurations.
* Figure A: circles and solid dots.
* Figure B: circles and solid dots.
* Figure C: circles and solid dots.
* Figure D: circles and solid dots.
