Question

Match List-I with List-II

List-I (Term)	List-II (Condition)
(A) Ageusia	(I) Decreased sense of smell
(B) Hyposmia	(II) Inability to smell anything
(C) Anosmia	(III) Loss of memories
(D) Amnesia	(IV) Loss of taste sense

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

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

Hint:

-osmia = Smell. -geusia = Taste. Use these roots to remember sensory terminology easily.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
In sensory evaluation of dairy products, examiners must be free from any physiological conditions that impair their ability to detect flavors and aromas. These medical terms describe specific sensory deficiencies.

Step 2: Detailed Explanation:
Let's match the terms with their definitions:
- (A) Ageusia: The prefix "a-" means "without" and "geusia" refers to taste. Thus, Ageusia is the total loss of the sense of taste (IV).
- (B) Hyposmia: "Hypo-" means low/decreased and "osmia" refers to smell. Thus, Hyposmia is a reduced or decreased ability to detect odors (I).
- (C) Anosmia: Again, "a-" means without. Anosmia is the total inability to smell anything (II).
- (D) Amnesia: This is a neurological condition involving the loss of memory, which can interfere with the "recognition" phase of sensory evaluation (III).
Matching these gives: A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III.

Step 3: Final Answer: (4) (A) - (IV), (B) - (I), (C) - (II), (D) - (III)
