    We need to determine the next term in the series.

    Step 1: Analyze the Pattern for Each Position

    1. First Letter:

    The first letters are increasing by 2 positions in the alphabet:

    B(2)D(4)F(6)H(8)B (2) \rightarrow D (4) \rightarrow F (6) \rightarrow H (8)​​

    Adding 2 to H (8):

    H + 2 = J (10)

    2. Second Letter:

    The second letters are increasing by 4 positions in the alphabet:

    D(4)H(8)L(12)P(16)D (4) \rightarrow H (8) \rightarrow L (12) \rightarrow P (16)​​

    Adding 4 to P (16):

    P + 4 = T (20)

    3. Third Letter:

    The third letters are increasing by 4 positions in the alphabet:

    F(6)J(10)N(14)R(18)F (6) \rightarrow J (10) \rightarrow N (14) \rightarrow R (18)​​

    Adding 4 to R (18):

    R + 4 = V (22)

    Step 2: Combine the Letters

    The next term in the series is:

    JTV

    Final Answer:

    The next term in the series is JTV.
