Select the figure from among the given options that can replace the question mark (?) in the following series.

In the first and third boxes, the square shape is filled with black colour. In the second and fourth boxes, the square shape is unfilled.

As per this logic, in the fifth box, square shape should be filled.

By this option (a) can be eliminated.

From the first to the second box, one circle moved from top to bottom.

From the second to the third box, one more circle moved from top to bottom.

From the third to the fourth box, one more circle moved from top to bottom.

From the fourth to the fifth box, one more circle will move from top to bottom.

By this option (c) and (d) can be eliminated.

Hence the figure given in option (b) will come in place of the question mark.
