Question

Match the Column I with Column II regarding adrenal gland.

Column I	Column II
i.	Zona glomerulosa	a.	Nor- epinephrine
ii.	Zona fasciculata	b.	Aldosterone
iii.	Zona Reticularis	c.	Cortisol
iv.	Adrenal medulla	d.	Androgens and Estradiols

Choose the correct option:

• A. i - b, ii - c, iii - d, iv -a.
• B. i - b, ii - c, iii - a, iv - d.
• C. i -d , ii -b , iii -a, iv -c .
• D. i -d, ii -c, iii -c, iv -a .

Hint:

Recall which layer of the adrenal cortex secretes which hormone.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Understanding the Concept
The adrenal cortex has three zones, and the medulla secretes catecholamines.

Step 2: Match
Zona glomerulosa secretes aldosterone, so i - b.
Zona fasciculata secretes cortisol, so ii - c.
Zona reticularis secretes androgens and estradiols, so iii - d.
Adrenal medulla secretes nor-epinephrine, so iv - a.

Step 3: Conclusion
The matching is i - b, ii - c, iii - d, iv - a.

Final Answer:
The correct pairing is i-b, ii-c, iii-d, iv-a. \[ \boxed{\text{(A) }\text{i - b, ii - c, iii - d, iv - a}} \]
