Match List-I with List-II: (a) Inulin (i) Phospholipid (b) Lecithin (ii) Nucleoside (c) Adenylic acid (iii) Nucleotide (d) Uridine (iv) Polysaccharide Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Options
- A(a)-(iv), (b)-(i), (c)-(ii), (d)-(iii)
- B(a)-(i), (b)-(iv), (c)-(iii), (d)-(ii)
- C(a)-(iv), (b)-(i), (c)-(iii), (d)-(ii)
- D(a)-(iv), (b)-(ii), (c)-(iii), (d)-(i)
Correct answer
C. (a)-(iv), (b)-(i), (c)-(iii), (d)-(ii)
Step-by-step solution
Inulin is a polymer of fructose, thus it is a polysaccharide. Lecithin is a phosphorus-containing lipid found in cell membranes, hence it is a phospholipid. Adenylic acid consists of a nitrogenous base (adenine), a ribose sugar, and a phosphate group, making it a nucleotide. Uridine is composed of uracil and a ribose sugar without a phosphate group, so it is a nucleoside. Answer: (a)-(iv), (b)-(i), (c)-(iii), (d)-(ii)
