Question

Match the following:

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

Hint:

Solve matching questions by identifying the most certain pair first.
For example, linking Ozone depletion with UV radiation (A-IV) immediately eliminates options (B) and (C).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Take each environmental term and think of its direct consequence.
Ozone loss lets more radiation through, the greenhouse effect traps heat, soil pollution comes from chemical residues, and sewage treatment is the fix for water pollution.
Step 2: Match the atmosphere related pair.
Reduced stratospheric ozone means less UV-B is absorbed, so more of it reaches the ground, which pairs ozone depletion with UV radiation, A to IV.
Step 3: Match the remaining three pairs.
The greenhouse effect's outcome of rising global temperature lines up as B, non biodegradable pesticide residues causing soil pollution lines up as C, and wastewater treatment addressing water pollution lines up as D, completing the set in order.
Final answer: Option 1, A-IV, B-II, C-I, D-III.
