Question

Match the following columns and select the correct option:

Column -I	Column-II
(a)	Gout	(i)	Decreased levels of estrogen
(b)	Osteoporosis	(ii)	Low $C{a}^{++}$ ions in the blood
(c)	Tetany	(iii)	Accumulation of uric acid crystals
(d)	Muscular dystrophy	(iv)	Auto immune disorder
		(v)	Genetic disorder

• A. $\left(a\right)-\left(ii\right),\left(b\right)-\left(i\right),\left(c\right)-\left(iii\right),\left(d\right)-\left(iv\right)$
• B. $\left(a\right)-\left(iii\right),\left(b\right)-\left(i\right),\left(c\right)-\left(ii\right),\left(d\right)-\left(v\right)$
• C. $\left(a\right)-\left(iv\right),\left(b\right)-\left(v\right),\left(c\right)-\left(i\right),\left(d\right)-\left(ii\right)$
• D. $\left(a\right)-\left(i\right),\left(b\right)-\left(ii\right),\left(c\right)-\left(iii\right),\left(d\right)-\left(iv\right)$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $\left(a\right)-\left(iii\right),\left(b\right)-\left(i\right),\left(c\right)-\left(ii\right),\left(d\right)-\left(v\right)$

Gout- It is an inflammatory disease which causes inflammation of joints. It is mainly caused by the accumulation of uric acid crystals.

Osteoporosis- It is an age-related disorder characterized by decreased bone mass and increased chances of fractures. Decreased levels of estrogen is a common cause.

Tetany - It is a disorder in which wild contractions or spasms of the muscles take place. This occurs due to the low calcium concentration in the body fluid.

Muscular Dystrophy - It is a disease that involves progressive degeneration of skeletal muscles, mostly due to genetic disorder.

Hence, option b is correct.
