Directions— (Q. 41-45) In each of these questions there are two sets of figures. The figures on 
the left are Problem Figures (four figures and one question-marked space) and those on the right are Answer Figures indicated by letter A, B, C, D and E. A series is established if one of the five Answer Figures is placed at the "question-marked space". Question Figures form a series if they change from left to right according to some rule. The letter of the Answer Figure which should be placed in the question-marked space is the answer. All the five figures i.e. tour Problem Figures and one Answer Figure placed in the question-marked space should be considered as forming the series.

Study the following question.

If we place the Answer Figure D' in the question marked space 't makes a series which indicates that one vertical line is added in each figure. So the answer is 'D'. Note that if we go by only one aspect of 'number of lines', Answer Figure 'C' may also fit in. So you have to consider all different aspects.
Now solve the following questions.
