Question

Match LIST-I with LIST-II

LIST-I	LIST-II
A. Thymus B. Adrenals C. Pancreas D. Ovaries	I. Fight or Flight II. Digestive enzymes III. Make Estrogen & Progestrone IV. Make white blood cells

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

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

Hint:

Remember: \[ \text{Adrenal glands} \rightarrow \text{Fight or Flight response} \] \[ \text{Pancreas} \rightarrow \text{Digestive enzymes} \] \[ \text{Ovaries} \rightarrow \text{Estrogen and Progesterone} \] \[ \text{Thymus} \rightarrow \text{Immune function} \]

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Concept: The endocrine and associated glands of the human body perform specialized physiological functions. Some glands secrete hormones, while others are involved in immunity, digestion, and reproduction. The question asks to correctly match glands with their primary functions.

Step 1: Match Thymus gland.
The thymus gland is associated with the immune system and helps in the development of white blood cells (especially T-lymphocytes). Thus: \[ \text{Thymus} \rightarrow \text{Make white blood cells} \] Hence: \[ A \rightarrow IV \]

Step 2: Match Adrenal glands.
Adrenal glands secrete adrenaline and noradrenaline, which prepare the body for emergency situations known as: \[ \text{Fight or Flight response} \] Thus: \[ B \rightarrow I \]

Step 3: Match Pancreas.
The pancreas secretes: \[ \text{Digestive enzymes} \] which aid in digestion of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Thus: \[ C \rightarrow II \]

Step 4: Match Ovaries.
Ovaries produce the female reproductive hormones: \[ \text{Estrogen and Progesterone} \] Thus: \[ D \rightarrow III \]

Step 5: Write the final matching.
The correct matching is: \[ A \rightarrow IV \] \[ B \rightarrow I \] \[ C \rightarrow II \] \[ D \rightarrow III \] Therefore: \[ \boxed{\text{A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III}} \]

Step 6: Identify the correct option.
The option matching the correct sequence is: \[ \boxed{\text{A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III}} \] Hence, the correct answer is: \[ \boxed{(D)} \]
