How to list 1 random word from 4 categories in choices for Multiple Choice Questions?

I have 4 lists of words of different categories. I would like them to appear randomly as choices in Multiple Choice Questions, such that for every question, there will be 1 random word from each list. I would also want the randomly chosen word to differ across questions. How do I make them appear so? For example: Animals List 1 Cat Dog Hamster Guinea Pig Animals List 2 Zebra Lion Tiger Giraffe Plants List 1 Grass Beanstalk Tree Leaves Plants List 2 Sunflower Rose Orchid Gardenia (These are made up lists). e.g. Question: (Picture of a Cat) "Name this living thing." Choice 1: Cat Choice 2: Random word from "Animals List 2" Choice 3: Random word from "Plants List 1" Choice 4: Random word from "Plants List 2" (Different choices to appear for every question) ------- I understand that I can use randomizer and piped text and embedded data for the choices, but how do I arrange it such that it will appear as mentioned? I think it might be similar to this, but I am not sure: https://www.qualtrics.com/community/discussion/1798/how-to-use-randomizer-of-survey-flow-as-piped-text Would appreciate the help!
