List-T List-II (a) Cretinism (i) Believing all things are living (b) Soma (ii) Less secretion of Thyroxine (c) Animism (iii) Less secretion of Growth Hormone (d) Dwarfism (iv) Cell body of Neuron
This question requires matching terms from List-I with their corresponding definitions or explanations in List-II. Let's break down each term and its correct match.
Cretinism is a condition characterized by stunted physical and mental growth due to congenital lack of thyroid hormone. Therefore, it directly relates to the hormone Thyroxine.
In biology, specifically in the study of neurons, the term Soma refers to the main part of a cell or an organism. In the context of a neuron, it specifically means the Cell body of Neuron, which contains the nucleus.
Animism is a belief system or worldview in which souls, spirits, or gods are believed to inhabit inanimate objects, plants, animals, or natural phenomena. This is essentially the belief that all things are alive or possess a spirit.
Dwarfism is a medical condition characterized by short stature. It is often caused by hormonal imbalances, particularly the deficiency in the secretion of the Growth Hormone during childhood.
Based on the explanations above, the correct matching is:
This corresponds to the option:
(a)-(ii), (b)-(iv), (c)-(i), (d)-(iii)
