Question

Match the types of biomolecules given in Column I with their examples given in Column II.

Column- I	Column- II
A) Simple lipid	I) Oleic acid
B) Derived lipid	II) Palmitic acid
C) Unsaturated fatty acid	III) Wax
D) Saturated fatty acid	IV) Sterol

Choose the correct option.

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

Hint:

Wax is a simple lipid, sterols are derived lipids.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Lipid classes
Wax is an ester of a fatty acid with a long-chain alcohol, so it is a simple lipid: A matches III. Sterols such as cholesterol are derived lipids: B matches IV.

Step 2: Fatty acids
Oleic acid has one C=C double bond, so it is unsaturated: C matches I. Palmitic acid has no double bond, so it is saturated: D matches II.

Step 3: Conclusion
The pairing is A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II.

Final Answer:
The correct matching is A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II. \[ \boxed{\text{(C) }\text{A - III, B - IV, C - I, D - II}} \]
