Drawers
These brain teasers rely on your ability to recognize groups of common attributes. For each of these puzzles you'll need to figure out why the words or letters are grouped as they are. Sometimes you will be asked to pick the odd-one-out or to place a new word into the correct group.
TROTD (The ruler of the drawers) hired a professional organizer to sort out his three drawers.
Unfortunately, the organizer had an odd way of organizing things. And when TROTD looked for things, they were hard to find.
There were three drawers, their contents were:
Bottom Drawer :
Sponge
Fish
Salt
Middle Drawer:
Car
Building
Tornado
Top Drawer :
Airplane
Rainwater
Meteor
(Just pretend these things can fit)
What is the pattern?
HintThis teaser has a height of difficulty.

Answer
The pattern is that the bottom drawer is the lowest, so it represent the water.
Sponge is a living plant.
Fish come from the water.
Salt is in saltwater.
The middle drawer represent on the land.
A car is on land.
Buildings are on land.
A tornado is on land.
The top drawer represents the sky.
Airplanes fly in the sky.
Rainwater falls from the sky.
A meteor falls from the sky.

| I'm assuming the error was fixed. but it was pretty easy with no error. It helps to know that some Native American tribes base their clan hierarchy similarly. |

i got it but agree with swanee that Tornado was confusing  |
