D	Swiss Cheese	IV	Immuno suppressive agent

Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

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

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Explanation:

• Streptokinase: Streptokinase is an enzyme produced by the bacteria Streptococci spp. This bacteria uses the enzyme streptokinase to break unwanted blood clots in the blood vessels, that is why streptokinase is also called clot buster. It is used to treat heart attack and pulmonary embolism (lung blood clots).
• Cyclosporin: Cyclosporin A is used as an immunosuppressant that lowers the immune system and is used in organ transplant patients. It is produced from Trichoderma polysporum which is a fungus.
• Statins: Statins are blood cholesterol-lowering agents. These are mainly used to lower LDL cholesterol also known as the bad cholesterol. It helps in reducing the risk of heart attacks or stroke. Statins are produced from a type of yeast called Monascus purpureus
• Swiss Cheese: It is formed by the bacterium Propionibacterium Shermanii. The holes in Swiss cheese are a result of gas (CO₂) produced during fermentation.

Therefore, the correct option is (B): A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III
