Question:medium

Match the LIST-I with LIST-II. 
 \[ \begin{array}{|l|l|} \hline \textbf{LIST I} & \textbf{LIST II} \\ \hline A. \ \text{Increased $\beta$ – Lipoproteins} & I. \ \text{Very Low Density Lipoproteins} \\ B. \ \text{Increased $\beta$ and Pre- $\beta$ Lipoproteins} & II. \ \text{Intermediate Density Lipoproteins} \\ C. \ \text{Broad $\beta$ – Lipoproteins} & III. \ \text{Low Density Lipoproteins} \\ D. \ \text{Increased Pre $\beta$ – Lipoproteins} & IV. \ \text{Low Density Lipoproteins and VLDL} \\ \hline \end{array} \]

Show Hint

Remember: LDL = $\beta$, VLDL = Pre-$\beta$, IDL = Broad $\beta$ lipoproteins.

  • A - IV, B - II, C - III, D - I
  • A - IV, B - III, C - II, D - I
  • A - I, B - IV, C - II, D - III
  • A - III, B - IV, C - II, D - I
Show Solution

The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Classify Lipoproteins.
- $\beta$ lipoproteins correspond to Low Density Lipoproteins (LDL).
- Pre-$\beta$ lipoproteins correspond to Very Low Density Lipoproteins (VLDL).
- Broad $\beta$ lipoproteins correspond to Intermediate Density Lipoproteins (IDL).
- A combination of $\beta$ and Pre-$\beta$ lipoproteins indicates the presence of both LDL and VLDL.
Step 2: Match Classifications to Lipoprotein Types.
- A. Elevated $\beta$ lipoproteins indicate LDL (III).
- B. Elevated $\beta$ and Pre-$\beta$ lipoproteins indicate LDL + VLDL (IV).
- C. Broad $\beta$ lipoproteins indicate IDL (II).
- D. Elevated Pre-$\beta$ lipoproteins indicate VLDL (I).
Step 3: Final Match.
The correct pairings are: A - III, B - IV, C - II, D - I.
