Options

A

(a)-(iv), (b)-(v), (c)-(i), (d)-(ii)

B

(a)-(iii), (b)-(i), (c)-(ii), (d)-(v)

C

(a)-(iv), (b)-(i), (c)-(ii), (d)-(v)

D

(a)-(i), (b)-(v), (c)-(iii), (d)-(ii)

Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option A

(a)-(iv), (b)-(v), (c)-(i), (d)-(ii)

Solution :

The correct option is (a)-(iv), (b)-(v), (c)-(i), (d)-(ii).


Let us analyze the function and action of each organism given in Column A to match it correctly with Column B:


(a) Yeast: Yeast is a fungus used in the fermentation process. During fermentation, it produces carbon dioxide gas which makes dough rise, making it essential in the baking of bread. Thus, (a) matches with (iv).


(b) Protozoan: Plasmodium is a protozoan transmitted by female Anopheles mosquitoes that is responsible for causing malaria. Thus, (b) matches with (v).


(c) Bacteria: Vibrio cholerae is a bacterium responsible for causing cholera. Thus, (c) matches with (i).


(d) Virus: Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a virus responsible for causing AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome). Thus, (d) matches with (ii).


Combining all the correct matches:

(a) - (iv)
(b) - (v)
(c) - (i)
(d) - (ii)


Hence, the correct option matching all items accurately is (a)-(iv), (b)-(v), (c)-(i), (d)-(ii).
