Options
- AA-I, B-IV, C-III, D-II
- BA-I, B-III, C-IV, D-II
- CA-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II
- DA-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II
Correct answer
B. A-I, B-III, C-IV, D-II
Step-by-step solution
Addison's disease is caused by the hyposecretion of hormones (glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids) from the adrenal cortex. Thus, A matches with I. Tetany is a disorder characterized by rapid spasms (wild contractions) in muscles due to low Ca⁺⁺ levels in the body fluid. Thus, B matches with III. Diabetes insipidus is caused by the hyposecretion of antidiuretic hormone (ADH) or vasopressin from the posterior pituitary, which leads to excessive water loss through urine (diuresis). Thus, C matches with IV. Simple
