Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

To solve this question, we need to match the items in List I with the appropriate items in List II. Let's analyze each item:

1. Tranquilizers: These are drugs used to reduce tension or anxiety. They are typically classified as antidepressant drugs. Therefore, we associate Tranquilizers with option iii - Antidepressant drugs.
2. Aspirin: This is a widely used drug that serves to reduce pain and inflammation, and it also acts as an anticoagulant, meaning it has anti blood clotting properties. Hence, Aspirin is linked with option i - Anti blood clotting.
3. Antibiotic: These are agents that kill or inhibit the growth of microorganisms. Salvarsan was one of the first antibiotics used to treat syphilis. Thus, Antibiotic corresponds to option ii - Salvarsan.
4. Antiseptic: These are substances that prevent the growth of disease-causing microorganisms. Soframicine is a well-known antiseptic. Thus, Antiseptic is matched with option iv - Soframicine.

Based on the above understanding, we can establish the following matches:

• A - iii
• B - i
• C - ii
• D - iv

From the given options, the correct match is:

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

This option correctly aligns each element of List I with its corresponding element in List II based on the descriptions provided above.
