Question

Match List-I with List-II.

List-I	List-II
A. Excess growth hormone	I. Reabsorption of water and electrolytes in kidney
B. Luteinizing hormone	II. Contraction of uterus during child birth
C. Vasopressin	III. Acromegaly
D. Oxytocin	IV. Ovulation

Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

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

Hint:

Acromegaly is hard to diagnose in its early stages because the anatomical changes occur very slowly over time. Oxytocin acts on a positive feedback loop during labor, increasing contraction intensity as labor progresses.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Understand the matching.
We match each hormone in List-I to its effect in List-II.
Step 2: Match A, excess growth hormone.
Too much growth hormone in adults causes Acromegaly, with enlarged face, hands, and feet. So A goes with III.
Step 3: Match B, luteinizing hormone.
LH triggers the release of the egg, that is ovulation. So B goes with IV.
Step 4: Match C, vasopressin.
Vasopressin (ADH) increases reabsorption of water and electrolytes in the kidney. So C goes with I.
Step 5: Match D, oxytocin.
Oxytocin causes contraction of the uterus during childbirth. So D goes with II.
Step 6: Assemble and conclude.
The full match is A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II, which is option (3).
\[ \boxed{\text{A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II}} \]
