Question

Match the LIST-I with LIST-II

LIST-I (Crops Type)	LIST-II (Crops Name)
A. Legume	I. Fenugreek
B. Fibre Crops	II. Cucumber
C. Fruits	III. Dates
D. Oil Seeds	IV. Sun flower

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

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

Hint:

Sunflower is an oil seed, dates are a fruit, fenugreek is a legume.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Understand the question.
We match each crop type in List-I with a crop name in List-II. We take each pair in turn and then compare with the four options.

Step 2: Match A, Legume.
Fenugreek (methi) is a leguminous plant and belongs to the pea family. So A-I.

Step 3: Match C, Fruits.
Dates are the fruit of the date palm. So C-III.

Step 4: Match D, Oil seeds.
Sunflower seeds give edible oil. So D-IV.

Step 5: Match B, Fibre crops.
The only name left is cucumber (II). Cucumber is really a vegetable fruit, so the paper's pairing for B is weak. We take it as the leftover pair, B-II, since the other three pairs are firm.

Step 6: Check each option.
Option 1 (A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV) matches all four pairs. Option 2 swaps C and D, so it is wrong. Option 3 puts A with cucumber, wrong. Option 4 puts A with dates, wrong.

Final Answer:
The three firm pairs A-I, C-III, D-IV fix the answer as option 1. \[ \boxed{\text{A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV (Option 1)}} \]
