Concept:The pattern involves a fixed rotation of the left arrow and a reversal of the right arrow in each step.
Explanation:The left arrow rotates anticlockwise by 90 degrees in each successive figure. Starting from pointing left, it goes to down, then right, then up.
The right arrow changes direction by 180 degrees (flips) in each step. Starting from pointing right, it goes to left, then right, then left.
For the missing figure (fourth step), the left arrow must point upward and the right arrow must point left.
Among the options, only option A shows the left arrow pointing up and the right arrow pointing left.
Answer:Option A.
