Q1: Match List I with List II : (NEET 2024)
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
(a) A-III, B-IV, C-III, D-I
(b) A-I, B-III, C-II, D-IV
(c) A-III, B-I, C-II, D-IV
(d) A-IV, B-II, C-III, D-I
Ans: (c)
To correctly match the items in List I with List II, we need to understand each term and its relationship:
Common Cold is primarily caused by Rhinoviruses. Hence, A is linked with III.
Haemozoin is a byproduct of the digestion of blood by parasites such as Plasmodium (which causes malaria). Therefore, B corresponds with I.
Widal test is a diagnostic test for Typhoid fever, caused by the bacterium Salmonella Typhi. Thus, C matches with II.
Allergy can be triggered by many allergens, including Dust Mites, which are a common cause of respiratory and dermatological allergies. Consequently, D aligns with IV.
Based on this, the matching should be:
A-III, B-I, C-II, D-IV
Therefore, the correct answer is: Option C: A-III, B-I, C-II, D-IV
Q2: Match List I with List II : (NEET 2024)
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
(a) A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II
(b) A-I, B-III, C-II, D-IV
(c) A-II, B-I, C-III, D-IV
(d) A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
Ans: (d)
To solve this matching problem, we need to identify which plant or application each substance in List I is correctly associated with in List II.
List I (Substances) and List II (their sources or uses):
Cocaine - Cocaine is derived from the coca plant, known scientifically as Erythroxylum. This matches with III in List II.
Heroin - Heroin is derived from the opium poppy, Papaver somniferum. This corresponds to IV in List II.
Morphine - Like heroin, Morphine is also derived from the opium poppy, Papaver somniferum. However, morphine is also directly associated with its use as a sedative in surgery, making I a valid association for its usage.
Marijuana - Marijuana is derived from Cannabis sativa, which corresponds to II in List II.
With this information:
A (Cocaine) matches with III (from Erythroxylum).
B (Heroin) matches with IV (Papaver somniferum).
C (Morphine) as an effective sedative in surgery matches with I.
D (Marijuana) matches with II (Cannabis sativa).
The correct matching based on the provided options is: Option D: A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
This option correctly matches the substance with their respective sources or primary uses.
Q3: Which of the following are Autoimmune disorders?
A. Myasthenia gravis B. Rheumatoid arthritis
C. Gout

(a) A, B & D only
(b) A, B & E only
(c) B, C & E only
(d) C, D & E only
Ans: (b)
Autoimmune disorders are conditions in which the immune system mistakenly attacks the body's own tissues. Analysis of the given diseases in the context of autoimmune disorders includes:
Myasthenia gravis: This is an autoimmune disorder where antibodies interfere with the communication between nerves and muscles, leading to muscle weakness.
Rheumatoid arthritis: Another autoimmune disease where the immune system mistakenly attacks the lining of the joints, causing inflammation and potentially leading to joint deformity.
Gout: This is not an autoimmune disease; it's a form of arthritis caused by excess uric acid in the bloodstream, resulting in the formation of crystals in joints, not by immune system activity attacking body tissues.
Muscular dystrophy: This refers to a group of genetic diseases characterized by progressive weakness and loss of muscle mass, not caused by an autoimmune response.
Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE): It is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks various body systems including skin, joints, and organs like kidneys and heart.
With this analysis, the correct diseases identified as autoimmune disorders are Myasthenia gravis, Rheumatoid arthritis, and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). Therefore, among the provided options, the correct answer is: Option B: A, B & E only.

Both bone-marrow and thymus provide micro-environments for the development and maturation of T-lymphocytes.
Options (B), (C) and (D) are incorrect.
Q5: Match List I with List II: (NEET 2024)
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
(a) A-I, B-III, C-II, D-IV
(b) A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II
(c) A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II
(d) A-II, B-IV, C-III, D-I
Ans: (b)
Sol: To correctly match List I (Diseases) with List II (Pathogen Types), we need to understand the causative agents for each disease listed in List I.
Details for each disease:
Typhoid: This is a bacterial infection caused by Salmonella typhi. Hence, it matches with "Bacteria".
Leishmaniasis: This disease is caused by parasitic protozoans of the genus Leishmania. Therefore, it corresponds to "Protozoa".
Ringworm: Despite its name, ringworm is not caused by a worm. It’s a fungal infection on the skin, caused by various types of fungi. So, Ringworm should be associated with "Fungus".
Filariasis: Also known as lymphatic filariasis, this condition is caused by infection with parasites classified as nematodes (roundworms) of the family Filarioidea. Thus, it matches with "Nematode".
With this understanding:
A should be paired with IV (Bacteria).
B should be paired with III (Protozoa).
C should be paired with I (Fungus).
D should be paired with II (Nematode).
Corresponding to the options provided:
Option A: A-I, B-III, C-II, D-IV - Incorrect
Option B: A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II - Correct!
Option C: A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II - Incorrect
Option D: A-II, B-IV, C-III, D-I - Incorrect
Therefore, the correct answer is Option B: A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II.
