Answer: i).$\to$c ii).$\to$d iii).$\to$a iv).$\to$b

Asthma is a respiratory condition marked by attacks of spasm in the airways, causing difficulty in breathing. It is usually connected to allergic reactions or other forms of hypersensitivity.
Bronchitis causes inflammation of the mucous membrane in the bronchial tubes.
Rhinitis or Coryza is the irritation and inflammation of the mucous membrane inside the nose.
Emphysema gradually damages the air sacs (alveoli) in the lungs, making them overinflated. This causes the patient to progressively take shorter breaths.
