Question

Match the LIST-I with LIST-II.

LIST-I	LIST-II
A. Fusion B. Distillation C. Clustering D. Agglomeration	I. Gandhiana II. Anesthesiology III. Natural Science IV. Astrophysics

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

Hint:

Astrophysics is an example of fusion, Gandhiana is an example of clustering, and Natural Science is an example of agglomeration.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Concept: In knowledge organization, subjects may be formed in different ways such as fusion, distillation, clustering and agglomeration.

Step 1: Match Fusion.
Fusion means combining two subjects to form a new subject. Astrophysics is formed by combining astronomy and physics. \[ A \rightarrow IV \]

Step 2: Match Distillation.
Distillation means a special subject emerging from a broader discipline. Anesthesiology is a specialized subject within medical science. \[ B \rightarrow II \]

Step 3: Match Clustering.
Clustering refers to a subject grouped around a person, idea or theme. Gandhiana is a cluster of literature and materials related to Mahatma Gandhi. \[ C \rightarrow I \]

Step 4: Match Agglomeration.
Agglomeration means bringing together a group of related subjects. Natural Science is a broad agglomerated subject area. \[ D \rightarrow III \] Therefore, the correct matching is: \[ A-IV,\ B-II,\ C-I,\ D-III \]
