List – IList – II
(a)Goitre(i)Vitamin B12 deficiency
(b)Kwashiorkor(ii)Thiamine deficiency
(c)Perinicious anaemia (iii)Iodine deficiency
(d)Beriberi(iv)Protein deficiency

Codes :

The correct answer is

a-(iii), b-(iv), c-(i), d-(ii)

Matching Medical Terms: List I and List II

This question requires matching conditions from List I with their corresponding nutritional deficiencies from List II.

Disease-Deficiency Matching

We will analyze each item in List I and match it with the correct deficiency from List II:

  • Goitre (List I-a): This condition is characterized by the enlargement of the thyroid gland and is primarily caused by a deficiency in Iodine. So, (a) matches with (iii).
  • Kwashiorkor (List I-b): This is a severe form of malnutrition characterized by edema, fatigue, and skin/hair changes, resulting from a lack of sufficient protein in the diet. So, (b) matches with (iv).
  • Pernicious Anaemia (List I-c): This type of anemia occurs when the body cannot absorb enough Vitamin B12, which is essential for red blood cell formation. So, (c) matches with (i).
  • Beriberi (List I-d): This disease results from a deficiency in Thiamine (Vitamin B1), affecting the nervous system and cardiovascular system. So, (d) matches with (ii).

Derived Matches and Correct Option

Based on the analysis, the correct matches are:

  • a - (iii) Iodine deficiency
  • b - (iv) Protein deficiency
  • c - (i) Vitamin B12 deficiency
  • d - (ii) Thiamine deficiency

Comparing these matches with the given options, Option 3 aligns perfectly: a-(iii), b-(iv), c-(i), d-(ii).

List I Term List II Deficiency Match
(a) Goitre (iii) Iodine deficiency a - (iii)
(b) Kwashiorkor (iv) Protein deficiency b - (iv)
(c) Pernicious anaemia (i) Vitamin B12 deficiency c - (i)
(d) Beriberi (ii) Thiamine deficiency d - (ii)
