The Correct Option is D

Approach Solution - 1

To solve the given question, we need to correctly match each biopolymer listed in List I with its corresponding monomer from List II. 

  1. Starch: Starch is a polysaccharide composed of \(\alpha\)-glucose molecules. Therefore, it corresponds to option II, \(\alpha\)-glucose.
  2. Cellulose: Cellulose is another polysaccharide, but it is made up of \(\beta\)-glucose monomers. Thus, it matches with option III, \(\beta\)-glucose.
  3. Nucleic Acid: Nucleic acids, such as DNA and RNA, are polymers of nucleotides. Hence, the correct match is option I, nucleotide.
  4. Protein: Proteins are made up of chains of amino acids, specifically \(\alpha\)-amino acids. Therefore, it corresponds to option IV, \(\alpha\)-amino acid.

Based on these matches, the correct option is: A-II, B-III, C-I, D-IV.

List I (Bio Polymer)List II (Monomer)
A. StarchII. \(\alpha\)-glucose
B. CelluloseIII. \(\beta\)-glucose
C. Nucleic acidI. nucleotide
D. ProteinIV. \(\alpha\)-amino acid

Approach Solution -2

The correct matching is as follows:  

- A. Starch is made up of \( \alpha \)-glucose, so \( A - II \).  
- B. Cellulose is made up of \( \beta \)-glucose, so \( B - III \).  
- C. Nucleic acid is made up of nucleotides, so \( C - I \).  
- D. Protein is made up of amino acids, so \( D - IV \).  

Hence, the correct matching is \( A - II, B - III, C - I, D - IV \).

The Correct Answer is: \( A - II, B - III, C - I, D - IV \)
