Question

Match List-I with List-II :

List-I (Parameter)	List-II (Instrument for measurement)
(A) Humidity	(I) Anemometer
(B) Wind	(II) Lysimeter
(C) Light intensity	(III) Hygrometer
(D) Evapotranspiration	(IV) Luxmeter

Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

• (A) - (III), (B) - (I), (C) - (IV), (D) - (II)
• (A) - (III), (B) - (II), (C) - (I), (D) - (IV)
• (A) - (I), (B) - (III), (C) - (IV), (D) - (II)
• (A) - (III), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (II)

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

The correct answer is (1) (A) - (III), (B) - (I), (C) - (IV), (D) - (II).

Here’s the reasoning for each match:

(A) Humidity: The instrument used to measure humidity is a Hygrometer. A hygrometer measures the amount of moisture in the air, making it the correct instrument for measuring humidity.

(B) Wind: The instrument used to measure wind is an Anemometer. An anemometer measures wind speed, making it the correct tool for this parameter.

(C) Light intensity: The instrument used to measure light intensity is a Luxmeter. A luxmeter measures the amount of light in a given area, so it is the correct tool for light intensity.

(D) Evapotranspiration: The instrument used to measure evapotranspiration is a Lysimeter. A lysimeter is used to measure the amount of water that evaporates from the soil and transpires through plants.

Thus, the correct matches are:

(A) Humidity - (III) Hygrometer

(B) Wind - (I) Anemometer

(C) Light intensity - (IV) Luxmeter

(D) Evapotranspiration - (II) Lysimeter

Therefore, the correct answer is (1) (A) - (III), (B) - (I), (C) - (IV), (D) - (II).
