Hint:

\textbf{Indian Scientists and Their Contributions.} Remembering the significant contributions of Indian scientists across various fields is important for general knowledge and understanding the history of science.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Let's match the scientists in List I with their notable discoveries or contributions in List II:
(A) Har Gobind Khorana: He is known for his research on the genetic composition of the cell (II) and his work on the interpretation of the genetic code and its function in protein synthesis. He received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1968.
(B) C.V. Raman: Sir C.V. Raman was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1930 for his discovery of the scattering of light (III), now known as the Raman Effect.
(C) Jagdish Chandra Bose: He was a pioneer in biophysics and is credited with the invention of the crescograph, an instrument for measurement of plant growth (IV). He also made significant contributions to the field of radio waves.
(D) Aryabhata: He was a prominent mathematician and astronomer from the classical age of Indian mathematics and astronomy. His major work, Aryabhatiya, includes significant contributions to mathematics, including the introduction of Zero (I) as a place-value system and also approximations for pi. Therefore, the correct matching is: A - II B - III C - IV D - I This corresponds to option (C)
