Question

Match LIST-I with LIST-II

LIST-I	LIST-II
A. Vitamin A B. Vitamin D C. Vitamin E D. Vitamin K	I. Rickets II. Prolonged clotting III. Night Blindness IV. Hemolysis

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

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

Hint:

Remember important vitamin deficiencies: \[ \text{Vitamin A} \rightarrow \text{Night Blindness} \] \[ \text{Vitamin D} \rightarrow \text{Rickets} \] \[ \text{Vitamin E} \rightarrow \text{Hemolysis} \] \[ \text{Vitamin K} \rightarrow \text{Clotting defects} \]

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Concept: Vitamins are essential micronutrients required for normal growth, metabolism, immunity, and maintenance of body functions. Deficiency of specific vitamins leads to characteristic diseases or disorders. The question asks to correctly match vitamins with their deficiency-related conditions.

Step 1: Match Vitamin A.
Deficiency of Vitamin A causes: \[ \text{Night Blindness} \] Thus: \[ A \rightarrow III \]

Step 2: Match Vitamin D.
Deficiency of Vitamin D causes: \[ \text{Rickets} \] especially in children due to poor bone mineralization. Thus: \[ B \rightarrow I \]

Step 3: Match Vitamin E.
Deficiency of Vitamin E may lead to: \[ \text{Hemolysis} \] because Vitamin E protects cell membranes from oxidative damage. Thus: \[ C \rightarrow IV \]

Step 4: Match Vitamin K.
Vitamin K is essential for blood clotting. Deficiency results in: \[ \text{Prolonged clotting} \] Thus: \[ D \rightarrow II \]

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

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