Question

Match the following

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

Hint:

Golgi = assembly/modification of glycolipids/glycoproteins; Lysosome = digestion; Vacuole = osmoregulation/storage; Glyoxysome = lipid → carbohydrate conversion in seeds.
Associate organelle names with their hallmark metabolic roles for quick recall.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

1. Golgi apparatus is involved in formation and processing of complex lipids and glycolipids (glycosylation and assembly) — so A \(\rightarrow\) IV.
2. Lysosomes are organelles of intracellular digestion including digestion of macromolecules such as lipids by lipases — so B \(\rightarrow\) III.
3. Vacuoles play key roles in osmoregulation (storage of solutes and maintenance of turgor) — so C \(\rightarrow\) II.
4. Glyoxysomes (specialised peroxisomes in oil-rich seeds) are involved in the conversion of stored lipids to carbohydrates via the glyoxylate cycle — so D \(\rightarrow\) I.
5. Therefore the correct matching is A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I. Hence the correct answer is (3) A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I.
