Question

Match List I with List II 

Choose the correct answer from the options given below: 
 

• A. A - II, B - I, C - IV, D - III
• B. A - III, B - II, C - I, D - IV
• C. A - I, B - II, C - III, D - IV
• D. A - IV, B - III, C - II, D - I

Hint:

Clinical & Ethology Matches:
Tonometer = Consistency of testis
Hygrometer = Relative humidity
Biological Clock = Suprachiasmatic nuclei
Mismothering = Abnormal maternal behaviour.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
Veterinary clinical breeding diagnostics, meteorology instrumentation, and animal chronobiology/ethology.

Step 2: Detailed Explanation:
Matching instruments/concepts in List I with parameters in List II:
- A. Tonometer (Testicular Tonometer): Instrument used to quantify the II. Consistency of testis (testicular tone and firmness) during breeding soundness examination of bulls.
- B. Hygrometer (Psychrometer): Instrument used to measure atmospheric I. Relative humidity.
- C. Biological Clock (Circadian Pacemaker): Anatomically localized in the IV. Suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) of the anterior hypothalamus.
- D. Mismothering: Defined as III. Abnormal behaviour maternal neglect (maternal rejection, cannibalism, or cross-fostering failure) in sheep and cattle.
Matching sequence: A - II, B - I, C - IV, D - III.

Step 3: Final Answer:
Thus, the correct matching is A - II, B - I, C - IV, D - III, matching option (A).
