Question

Match List-I with List-II: 
 \[ \begin{array}{|l|l|} \hline \textbf{List-I (Muscle)} & \textbf{List-II (Nerve supply)} \\ \hline A. \ \text{Gluteus maximus} & I. \ \text{Ventral rami of S1, S2} \\ B. \ \text{Piriformis} & II. \ \text{Nerve to quadratus femoris} \\ C. \ \text{Gemellus inferior} & III. \ \text{Superior Gluteal nerve} \\ D. \ \text{Gluteus minimus} & IV. \ \text{Inferior gluteal nerve} \\ \hline \end{array} \]

• A. (A) - (IV), (B) - (III), (C) - (II), (D) - (I)
• B. (A) - (III), (B) - (II), (C) - (IV), (D) - (I)
• C. (A) - (III), (B) - (I), (C) - (IV), (D) - (II)
• D. (A) - (IV), (B) - (I), (C) - (III), (D) - (II)
• E.

Hint:

For gluteal muscles, remember that the inferior gluteal nerve supplies the gluteus maximus and the superior gluteal nerve supplies gluteus minimus and medius.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Understand the musculature and their nerve supply in the gluteal region.
The gluteal muscles and their associated nerves are vital for locomotion and postural support. Each muscle is controlled by distinct nerves responsible for its function.
Step 2: Detail each gluteal muscle and its nerve innervation.
- (A) Gluteus maximus: Supplied by the Inferior gluteal nerve (IV).
- (B) Piriformis: Supplied by the Nerve to quadratus femoris (II).
- (C) Gemellus inferior: Supplied by the Ventral rami of S1 and S2 (I).
- (D) Gluteus minimus: Supplied by the Superior Gluteal nerve (III).
Step 3: Summary of correct pairings.
The accurate matches are: (A) - (III), (B) - (II), (C) - (IV), (D) - (I).
