Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option B

a - iv, b - iii, c - ii, d - i

a - iv, b - iii, c - ii, d - i

Solution :

To match each item in List‑I with the correct description in List‑II, we examine the anatomical characteristics of each structure.

1. Scapula (a)
The scapula is a large, flat bone that is roughly triangular in shape. This matches the description “triangular flat bone” (iv).

2. Cranium (b)
The bones of the cranium are joined together by sutures. Sutures are a type of fibrous joint. Therefore, the cranium corresponds to “fibrous joints” (iii).

3. Sternum (c)
The sternum is a classic example of a “flat bone” without the triangular shape. Hence it matches “flat bone” (ii).

4. Vertebral column (d)
Vertebrae are separated by intervertebral discs, which are composed of fibro‑cartilage, forming cartilaginous joints. Thus the vertebral column aligns with “cartilaginous joints” (i).

Putting the matches together gives the final answer:

a – iv, b – iii, c – ii, d – i
