Question

Match List I with List II

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

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

Hint:

Theriogenology Matches:
Hydroallantois = Bloated bullfrog appearance
Mummified Fetus = Persistent CL
eCG PMSG = Placental hormone (Endometrial cups)
Pseudopregnancy = Cabergoline.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
Clinical signs, reproductive endocrinology, and targeted theriogenological pharmacology in domestic animals.

Step 2: Detailed Explanation:
Matching clinical/endocrinological parameters in List I with descriptions in List II:
- A. Hydroallantois (Hydrallantois): Rapid, massive pathological accumulation of fluid in the allantoic sac ($100 - 200\text{ litres}$) causing a characteristic bilateral ventral distension known as II. Bloated bull frog appearance of the cow.
- B. Mummified Fetus: Fetal death without cervical opening where sterile dehydration occurs, supported by a III. Persistent corpus luteum (failure of luteolysis).
- C. ECG (eCG PMSG): Equine Chorionic Gonadotropin is a IV. Placental hormone produced by endometrial cups between days 40--120 of equine pregnancy.
- D. Pseudo pregnancy in bitch: Treated with I. Cabergoline (a potent $\text{D}_2$-dopamine agonist that inhibits pituitary prolactin secretion).
Matching sequence: A - II, B - III, C - IV, D - I.

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