Question

Match List I with List II.

	List I  Inventions		List II Inventors
A	Lift	I	Aifred Nobal
B	Radium	II	C.Biro
C	Ball-Point-Pen	III	Marrie and Pierre Currle
D	Dynamite	IV	E.G Otis

Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :

• A. A-II, B-IV, C-1, D-III
• B. A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I
• C. A-III, B-I, C-II, D-IV
• D. A-IV, B-I, C-11 , D-III

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

To solve the matching problem between the inventions in List I and their respective inventors in List II, we must use our knowledge of historical inventions and inventors:

1. Lift: The lift, also known as an elevator, was developed by Elisha Graves Otis. He is recognized for inventing the safety device that prevents elevators from falling if the hoisting cable fails. Therefore, Lift matches with Elisha Graves Otis (IV).
2. Radium: This element was discovered by Marie and Pierre Curie. Their research was revolutionary in the field of radioactivity. Thus, Radium matches with Marie and Pierre Curie (III).
3. Ball-Point Pen: The ball-point pen was invented by László Bíró, a Hungarian-Argentinian inventor whose name is often associated as "Biro." Hence, the Ball-Point Pen corresponds to C. Bíró (II).
4. Dynamite: The explosive material known as dynamite was invented by Alfred Nobel. This invention led to significant advancements in construction and demolition. Consequently, Dynamite pairs with Alfred Nobel (I).

Based on these matchings, the correct correspondence between List I and List II is:

• A - IV (Lift - E.G Otis)
• B - III (Radium - Marie and Pierre Curie)
• C - II (Ball-Point Pen - C. Biro)
• D - I (Dynamite - Alfred Nobel)

Thus, the correct answer is A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I.
