First of all the way its arranged in the box its shows we have to rotate it to visualise.
Assume AB are two parts close to each other and C is far (like in fig. 2).
Rotate fig.2 with some angle you will get fig.3 (AB then C part above).
Rotate fig.3 with some angle you will get fig.5 (AB down then C part above).
Rotate fig.5 with some angle you will get again fig.4 (AB up then C part down).
Rotate fig.5 with some angle you will get fig.2 (AB left side then C part right side).
So, 1 is different.

Consider the fig petals as A,B & C.
B & C are together and A is a little far from those both.
When you rotate every fig.in a clockwise direction A turns from right to left in fig.2,3,4 & 5
When it comes to fig.1- A turns from left to right.
So, the odd one is 1st option.

@All.
In this problem, consider the rest of the options expect A and assume that fig;2 and fig;3 are drawn side by side on a piece of page and if you fold the page it will be printed in same way in which next figure is drawn so this is the meaning of rotated.

@Nagarjuna.
Consider all figure are drawn in a paper and when you fold the paper figure 2 overlap with figure 3 and figure 4 overlap with figure 5, but figure 1 doesn't overlap with anyone of this figure.

The suggested reason related to rotation is also correct but all the figures are also having at least one hand horizontal to 0 to 180 degree plane except 4. This is also valid isn't it?

Select one figure and try to feet in other figure.
In above example fig.2 can fit in figure 3, 4 and vice versa by rotating each other.
But fig.1 one cant fit in other three figure.

Figures 2, 3, 4, 5 can be rotated into each other but 1 figure can't be obtained by just rotation but we have to turn upside down figure 1 and then rotate it to get other figures.

Can somebody please explain the phrase "can be rotated into each other".

If all figures can be rotated then why A option is the corrected.

The petal in the middle leans towards the right except in A.
