Answer Details
The word that has the same consonant sound as "marks" is "axe". The underlined consonant sound in "marks" is /ks/. The word "axe" also has the /ks/ consonant sound.
In "exhaust", the underlined consonant sound is /gz/. This is different from the /ks/ sound in "marks".
In "mosque", the underlined consonant sound is /sk/. This is also different from the /ks/ sound in "marks".
In "exist", the underlined consonant sound is /gz/. This is different from the /ks/ sound in "marks".
