Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: (C) tagazen

Explanation

The common element taga in relftaga, otaga and fertaga represents care. The other elements distinguish free, ful and less, so the care element follows those modifiers in the supplied examples. Combining care with the element for after gives **tagazen, C**, using the order indicated by the choices.
