Question

Match List-I with List-II:

• A. (A)-(I), (B)-(II), (C)-(III), (D)-(IV)
• B. (A)-(II), (B)-(III), (C)-(IV), (D)-(I)
• C. (A)-(I), (B)-(II), (C)-(IV), (D)-(III)
• D. (A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)

Hint:

Focus on the origin of rocks (igneous, sedimentary, metamorphic) and their corresponding commonly associated minerals.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Igneous rocks like granite are formed from cooled magma. Marine sedimentary rocks like limestone result from sediment accumulation in marine settings. Metamorphic rocks such as gneiss form from transformation under heat and pressure. Volcanic ash is commonly linked with terrestrial sedimentary rock deposits.

Answer 2

Elimination approach:
(A) describes rocks such as granite that crystallise from cooled magma, which can only be an igneous rock category, ruling out any option pairing (A) with a sedimentary or metamorphic label. (B), rocks like limestone formed from sediment deposited in the sea, must be marine sedimentary. (C), rocks like gneiss transformed by heat and pressure, must be metamorphic. (D), material such as volcanic ash that settles and accumulates on land, is classed as terrestrial sedimentary. Testing these four assignments against the given choices, only the option reading (A)-(II), (B)-(III), (C)-(IV), (D)-(I) satisfies every pairing, confirming it as correct.
