Solution

The correct option is C Transmigration
Option C: 'Transmigration' means 'movement of a soul into another body after death'. It means the same as the given group of words.
Hence this word substitutes the given words and option C is correct.
Option A: 'Metamorphosis' is a biological process in which an animal physically develops after birth, transforming into the adult form.
Option B: 'Transition' means 'process of changing from one state/condition to another'.
Option D: 'Extrapolation' means 'to guess or think that something might happen using information that is already known'.
These words do not mean the same as the given group of words. So, it cannot replace them.
Hence options A, B and D are incorrect.
