Vaunt - Vaunt means to boast or to praise about something excessively.

Flaunt - Flaunt also means to boast about something or to praise something.

Flaunt is the synonym of the word Vaunt.

Disparate - Disparate means essentially different in its kind or unlike or not able to be compared.

Then the required word is the synonym of Disparate.

Here in the given options, Contrast is the only word which is similar in meaning of Disparate.

Hence, Vaunt : Flaunt :: Disparate : Contrast.

The given number series is 

3, 5, 8, 15, 28, 51, ?

Here the pattern it follows is

3

3 + 2 = 5 ( add prime number less than 3 i.e, 2)

5 + 3 = 8 (3 is prime number less than 5)

8 + 7 = 15 (7 is prime number less than 8)

15 + 13 = 28 (13 is prime number less than 15)

28 + 23 = 51 (23 is prime number less than 28)

51 + 47 = 98 (47 is prime number less than 51)

Hence, the next number in the given number series is 98.

The given series pattern follows

17       9       10       18.5       35       90

× 0.5 + 0.5,   × 1 + 1,   × 1.5 + 1.5,   × 2 + 2,   × 2.5 + 2.5

So here 

17x0.5 + 0.5 = 9

9x1 + 1 = 10

10x1.5 + 1.5 = 16.5

16.5x2 + 2 = 35

35x2.5 + 2.5 = 90

Here the odd man in the given series is 18.5

Here the relation between the given words is that the second word is the collection of the first word.

As the collection of grains is called Stock, similarly, the collection of sticks is called as Bundle.

Hence, Grain : Stock :: Stick : Bundle.

Let principal = P, Then, S.I.= P and Time = 8 years

We know that S.I. = PTR/100

Rate = [(100 x P)/ (P x 8)]% = 12.5% per annum.

Hydrogen Bomb is based on the principle of Nuclear Fusion.

• Nuclear fusion is a reaction in which two or more atomic nuclei are combined to form one or more different atomic nuclei and subatomic particles.

• The difference in mass between the reactants and products is manifested as either the release or absorption of energy.
