Answer 1

Given words: BAD, FIG, ICE, NOT

Transformation Rules:

Each vowel is changed to the letter immediately following it in the English alphabetical order.
Each consonant is changed to the letter immediately preceding it in the English alphabetical order.

Analysis of each word and resulting cluster:

Original Word	Transformation Details	Resulting Cluster	Contains Vowel?
BAD	B (consonant) → A A (vowel) → B D (consonant) → C	ABC	Yes (A)
FIG	F (consonant) → E I (vowel) → J G (consonant) → F	EJF	Yes (E)
ICE	I (vowel) → J C (consonant) → B E (vowel) → F	JBF	No
NOT	N (consonant) → M O (vowel) → P T (consonant) → S	MPS	No

Conclusion:

From the analysis, the letter clusters with no vowels are JBF and MPS.

Thus, there are "Two" such letter clusters where no vowel appears.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".
