Match List-I with List-II and select the correct answer using the code given below the lists:
List-I (carcinoma) List-II (characteristic) A. Seminoma testis 1. Hormone dependent B. Carcinoma prostrate 2. Does not spread by lymphatics C. Basal cell carcinoma 3. Prognosis depends on thickness D. Malignant melanoma 4. Highly radiosensitive
A- 4 B-1 C- 2 D-3
Carcinoma Matching Analysis
This question requires matching specific types of carcinomas (List-I) with their defining characteristics (List-II).
List-I and List-II Matching
- A. Seminoma testis is known for being highly radiosensitive. Therefore, A matches with 4.
- B. Carcinoma prostate is often characterized as hormone dependent. Thus, B matches with 1.
- C. Basal cell carcinoma typically does not spread by lymphatics; it primarily grows locally. Hence, C matches with 2.
- D. Malignant melanoma prognosis significantly depends on its thickness (Breslow depth). So, D matches with 3.
Selecting the Correct Option
Combining the matches:
- A - 4
- B - 1
- C - 2
- D - 3
This combination corresponds to Option 1.
