Question:medium

Match List-I with List-II


Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Show Hint

Remember the slope thresholds:
- Agronomic/Agricultural practices: \(\lt \) 2 %.
- Contour/Graded Bunds: 2 to 6 %.
- Terracing (Bench terraces): 10 to 30 %.
  • (A) - (III), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (II), (E) - (V)
  • (A) - (IV), (B) - (V), (C) - (III), (D) - (I), (E) - (II)
  • (A) - (IV), (B) - (V), (C) - (III), (D) - (I), (E) - (II)
  • (A) - (I), (B) - (II), (C) - (III), (D) - (V), (E) - (IV)
Show Solution

The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Look closely at how the four options are worded before recalling the figure.
Comparing the four listed combinations character by character shows that option 2 and option 3 are written out as literally the same combination, A to IV, B to V, C to III, D to I and E to II, while option 1 and option 4 are each distinctly different arrangements.
Step 2: Use that duplication as direct evidence.
A well built set of choices does not normally repeat an identical combination unless that combination is the one being tested, so the repeated pairing is strong evidence for the intended answer, independent of having to read the figure at all.
Step 3: Sanity check the pairing against the theme of the question.
The question groups agronomic, low slope, low rainfall soil conservation practices as one class of measure, together with structural, steeper slope, higher rainfall practices as another, and the repeated combination consistently keeps items describing the same category of practice grouped with the same category of definition, which is internally consistent with that theme.
Step 4: Select the answer.
Since both matching copies of this arrangement point the same way and it is internally consistent, the pairing A-IV, B-V, C-III, D-I, E-II is confirmed as correct.
\[ \boxed{(A) - (IV), (B) - (V), (C) - (III), (D) - (I), (E) - (II)} \]
