Solution :
Given:
CEG, IKM, OQS, ?
The pattern followed here is –
CEG→C + 2 = E; E + 2 = G; G + 2 = I (first letter of the next term)
IKM→I + 2 = K; K + 2 = M; M + 2 = O (first letter of the next term)
OQS→O + 2 = Q; Q + 2 = S; S + 2 = U (first letter of the next term)
U + 2 = W; W + 2 = Y→UWY
UWY is the missing term of the given series. Hence, the first option is correct.
