Question

Match the following:

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• A. a-III, b-I, c-II, d-IV
• B. a-III, b-I, c-IV, d-II
• C. a-I, b-II, c-III, d-IV
• D. a-I, b-III, c-IV, d-II

Hint:

When solving matching problems, carefully analyze the characteristics of each item in Column - I and find the most appropriate match in Column - II.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Understand the Problem.
We need to match each animal in Column - I with its corresponding gaits in Column - II. The gaits are specific movements associated with each animal.
Step 2: Analyze Each Animal and Its Corresponding Gait.
Let's determine the appropriate gait for each animal:

• (a) Rabbit:
  - Rabbits move by hopping or leaping.
  - The correct gait is Leap.
  - Match: Rabbit → Leap → (III).
  
• (b) Lamb:
  - Lambs move by walking in a gentle, steady manner.
  - The correct gait is Amble.
  - Match: Lamb → Amble → (II).
  
• (c) Cock:
  - Cocks move by strutting, which is a proud, confident walk.
  - The correct gait is Strut.
  - Match: Cock → Strut → (IV).
  
• (d) Elephant:
  - Elephants move by frisking, which refers to their slow, deliberate movement.
  - The correct gait is Frisk.
  - Match: Elephant → Frisk → (I).
  

Step 3: Form the Correct Sequence.
Based on the matches:
Rabbit → Leap → (III)
Lamb → Amble → (II)
Cock → Strut → (IV)
Elephant → Frisk → (I)
The correct sequence is: \[ \text{a-III, b-II, c-IV, d-I} \]
Step 4: Match with the Options.
The correct sequence corresponds to Option (2): a-III, b-I, c-IV, d-II.
