Correct Answer :

Option C

A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II

A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II

Solution :

To find the correct match between List I and List II, let us analyze each item individually based on established biological and medical concepts:


A. α-1 antitrypsin: α-1 antitrypsin is a protein used to treat emphysema (a chronic lung disease where the alveoli are damaged). Thus, A matches with III.


B. Cry IAb: The cryIAb gene from Bacillus thuringiensis controls corn borer infestations. Thus, B matches with IV.


C. Cry IAc: The cryIAc gene (along with cryIIAb) is used to control cotton bollworms. Thus, C matches with I.


D. Enzyme replacement therapy: Enzyme replacement therapy is a medical treatment used to treat certain genetic disorders, such as Adenosine Deaminase (ADA) deficiency, by replacing the deficient enzyme. Thus, D matches with II.


Combining all the correct matches, we get:
A - III
B - IV
C - I
D - II


Therefore, the correct option is A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II.
