The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

To match the items in List-I with List-II, we need to understand the characteristics of each bone and joint type mentioned.

  1. Scapula: The scapula, also known as the shoulder blade, is a triangular, flat bone. It connects the humerus (upper arm bone) with the clavicle (collarbone). Therefore, it matches with (iv) Triangular flat bone.
  2. Cranium: The cranium is part of the skull and is made up of flat bones that are connected by fibrous joints. These joints are called sutures, which are immovable. Therefore, it matches with (iii) Fibrous joints.
  3. Sternum: The sternum, or breastbone, is also a type of flat bone. It is anteriorly located in the center of the chest. Therefore, it matches with (ii) Flat bone.
  4. Vertebral column: The vertebral column, or spine, consists of vertebrae which are joined by intervertebral discs. These discs form cartilaginous joints, providing limited movement and cushioning. Therefore, it matches with (i) Cartilaginous joints.

Based on the above analysis, the correct matching is:

  • (a) Scapula - (iv) Triangular flat bone
  • (b) Cranium - (iii) Fibrous joints
  • (c) Sternum - (ii) Flat bone
  • (d) Vertebral column - (i) Cartilaginous joints

Hence, the correct option that matches this sequence is (iv) (iii) (ii) (i).

Locomotion and Movement

Locomotion

The movement of a creature from one place to another is known as locomotion. During the process, there is the action of appendages such as wings, limbs, and flagella. In some animals, like fish, whales, and sharks, locomotion upshots from a wave-like series of muscle contractions. Locomotion helps an organism in finding their food, avoid harsh weather conditions, escape from their predators, etc.

Some examples of locomotion are walking, running, swimming, etc. Movement, on the other hand, refers to any type of motion that need not be localized.

Movement 

Movement is generally described as a state of changing the position from rest to motion or vice-versa. Movement can be both voluntary movement and involuntary movement. Movement helps an organism perform essential functions, such as pumping blood to the different parts of the body, etc.
