Match List I with List II :

	List I		List II
A.	Scutellum	I.	Persistent nucellus
B.	Non-albuminous seed	II.	Cotyledon of Monocot seed
C.	Epiblast	III.	Groundnut
D.	Perisperm	IV.	Rudimentary cotyledon

Choose the option with all correct matches.

**Matching the terms**

1. Scutellum (A) – The scutellum is a specialized cotyledon found in monocotyledonous seeds. It functions as a nutrient‑absorbing organ during germination. Therefore, it correctly matches II – Cotyledon of Monocot seed.

2. Non‑albuminous seed (B) – In non‑albuminous seeds, the storage tissue is not derived from the albumen but from other parts of the seed, such as the perisperm or endosperm. Groundnut (III) is a classic example of a non‑albuminous seed, making this the correct pair.

3. Epiblast (C) – The epiblast is a rudimentary or reduced cotyledon that is present in some seeds but does not develop into a fully functional leaf‑like structure. Hence, it matches IV – Rudimentary cotyledon.

4. Perisperm (D) – The perisperm originates from the nucellus and remains persistent in the mature seed, serving as a storage tissue. This corresponds to I – Persistent nucellus.

Putting all the correct matches together gives the option:

A‑II, B‑III, C‑IV, D‑I
