Options
- AA-3, B-1, C-2, D-4
- BA-3, B-2, C-1, D-4
- CA-4, B-1, C-2, D-3
- DA-2, B-3, C-4, D-1
Correct answer
A. A-3, B-1, C-2, D-4
Step-by-step solution
Streptococcus bacteria produce the enzyme streptokinase, which is modified by genetic engineering and used as a 'clot buster' for removing clots from the blood vessels of patients who have undergone myocardial infarction. Thus, A matches with 3. Trichoderma polysporum is a fungus that produces Cyclosporin A, which is used as an immunosuppressive agent in organ transplant patients. Thus, B matches with 1. Monascus purpureus is a yeast that produces statins, which are used as blood-cholesterol lowering agents. Thus,
