Match the following hormones with the respective disease. Column I (a) Insulin (b) Thyroxin (c) Corticoids (d) Growth Hormone Column II (i) Addison's disease (ii) Diabetes insipidus (iii) Acromegaly (iv) Goitre (v) Diabetes mellitus Select the correct option
Answer: (C) (v), (b) (iv), (c) (i), (d) (iii). Answer: (c) (a)-(v), (b)-(iv), (c)-(i), (d)-(iii) Solution: Correct matches: Insulin → Diabetes mellitus (hyperglycemia from insulin deficiency/resistance); Thyroxin → Goitre (iodine-deficiency hypothyroidism enlarges the thyroid); Corticoids → Addison's disease (adrenal cortex underproduction); Growth Hormone → Acromegaly (excess GH in adults).
- A.(v), (b) (i), (c) (ii), (d) (iii)
- B.(ii), (b) (iv), (c) (iii), (d) (i)
- C.(v), (b) (iv), (c) (i), (d) (iii)✓
- D.(ii), (b) (iv), (c) (i), (d) (iii)
Correct Answer
(C) (v), (b) (iv), (c) (i), (d) (iii)
Solution & Explanation
Answer: (c) (a)-(v), (b)-(iv), (c)-(i), (d)-(iii) Solution: Correct matches: Insulin → Diabetes mellitus (hyperglycemia from insulin deficiency/resistance); Thyroxin → Goitre (iodine-deficiency hypothyroidism enlarges the thyroid); Corticoids → Addison's disease (adrenal cortex underproduction); Growth Hormone → Acromegaly (excess GH in adults). Hence Insulin–(v), Thyroxin–(iv), Corticoids–(i), Growth Hormone–(iii).
