Question:medium

Match the Long/Short term effect on body systems presented in List-I with their resultants presented in List-II
LIST-I
Long/Short term effect on body systems
LIST-II
Resultants
A. Long term effect on the Muscular systemI. Hypertrophy of muscles
B. Short term effect on the Muscular systemII. Increased muscle temperature
C. Long term effect on the Respiratory systemIII. Respiratory rate increases
D. Short term effect on the Respiratory systemIV. Lung volume increases

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Show Hint

Hypertrophy and more lung volume come after long training. Higher temperature and faster breathing appear during exercise.

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

The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Split the list:
Two items in List-I are about muscles and two are about the respiratory system. Each system has one long term and one short term effect.

Step 2: Use the easy pair first:
Breathing rate going up is what anyone notices during a run. That is a short term respiratory effect, so D goes with III.

Step 3: Use the leftover respiratory item:
The other respiratory item is a long term effect. Of the remaining results, only bigger lung volume fits, so C goes with IV.

Step 4: Muscle pair:
Bigger muscles (hypertrophy) come from long training, so A goes with I. A warmer muscle is a short term result, so B goes with II.

Step 5: Pick the option:
Combining gives A-I, B-II, C-IV, D-III, which is option (3).

Final Answer:
Option (3) is the correct match. \[ \boxed{\text{Option 3}} \]
