Match the terms given in Column-I with their respective meaning in Column-II. Select the correct option :

	Column-I		Column-II
(i)	Seasonal Unemployment	(a)	Private enterprises hiring less than 10 employees
(ii)	Self-employed	(b)	Workers using their own resources to earn livelihood
(iii)	Unorganised sector	(c)	Unemployment occurring in specific season
(iv)	Disguised Unemployment	(d)	Zero Marginal Productivity

• A. (i)-(d); (ii)-(a); (iii)-(b); (iv)-(c)
• B. (i)-(b); (ii)-(a); (iii)-(c); (iv)-(d)
• C. (i)-(c); (ii)-(b); (iii)-(a); (iv)-(d)
• D. (i)-(c); (ii)-(d); (iii)-(a); (iv)-(b)

Hint:

Matching types of employment and unemployment: option C.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Match each term with its meaning:
(i) Seasonal unemployment: unemployment that occurs in specific seasons of the year. This is (c).
(ii) Self-employed: workers who use their own resources to earn a living. This is (b).
(iii) Unorganised sector: private enterprises that hire fewer than 10 workers. This is (a).
(iv) Disguised unemployment: more workers than needed, with zero marginal productivity. This is (d).

Step 2: Write the matched list:
(i)-(c); (ii)-(b); (iii)-(a); (iv)-(d).

Step 3: Check option (A):
(i)-(d) is wrong, since seasonal is not zero marginal productivity. So (A) is wrong.

Step 4: Check option (B):
(i)-(b) is wrong, since seasonal unemployment is not about own resources. So (B) is wrong.

Step 5: Check option (D):
(ii)-(d) is wrong, since self-employed is not zero marginal productivity. So (D) is wrong.

Step 6: Check option (C):
This is the same as our list, so (C) is correct.

Final Answer:
(i)-(c); (ii)-(b); (iii)-(a); (iv)-(d). Option (C).
