Match the following and choose the appropriate option.

Answer: A

The correct matching is (a) - (ii), (b) - (iv), (c) - (i), (d) - (iii).

Grihapatis were the independent farmers of northern villages, most of them smaller landowners (ii).
Shrenis were associations of craft persons and merchants (iv).
In the Tamil region, the adimai, like the kadaisiyar, were landless labourers, including slaves (i).
Arikamedu, near present-day Puducherry, was a coastal settlement where ships unloaded goods from distant lands (iii).

The other three options each pair at least one term wrongly, for example making shrenis landless labourers or Arikamedu a group of craft persons.
