Analogical problem-solving requires identifying similarities between the original problem and a known solution in order to apply that solution in a new context. If the analogical problem differs greatly in superficial similarity, it will not be as effective in helping to solve the original problem. The other three scenarios listed (A, C, and D) all have factors that can increase the effectiveness of analogical problem-solving.
