Let's analyze the pattern in the letter clusters:

1) RATE : SCWI

o The relationship between RATE and SCWI can be seen by shifting each letter by a certain number of positions in the alphabet.

§ R → S: Shift by +1

§ A → C: Shift by +2

§ T → W: Shift by +3

§ E → I: Shift by +4

2) HIGH : IKJL

o Similarly, for HIGH and IKJL:

§ H → I: Shift by +1

§ I → K: Shift by +2

§ G → J: Shift by +3

§ H → L: Shift by +4

Now, applying the same pattern to OPEN:

· O → P: Shift by +1

· P → R: Shift by +2

· E → H: Shift by +3

· N → R: Shift by +4

The resulting cluster is PRHR, which matches option (d).

Therefore, the correct answer is d) PRHR.
