Answer: C

Link - the link between the root words is one of function. An apiary always contains bees within it.

A is wrong because a museum can contain things other than paintings.
B is wrong because dams retain water, they do not contain water within them.
D is wrong because forums are not speech-specific. This is also the same link as A, and they can’t both be right.
E is wrong because stars are displayed in a planetarium, not contained within the planetarium.
