Match the following :

List IList II
(a) Alethrin(i) Organochlorines
(b) Chlorthion(ii) Pyrethrin
(c) Aldicarb(iii) Organophosphorus
(d) Endrin(iv) Carbamate

Codes :

  • A.(a)-(i), (b)-(ii), (c)-(iii), (d)-(iv)
  • B.(a)-(i), (b)-(iii), (c)-(ii), (d)-(iv)
  • C.(a)-(ii), (b)-(iii), (c)-(iv), (d)-(i)
  • D.(a)-(iii), (b)-(iv), (c)-(i), (d)-(ii)

Answer: C

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

  • Allethrin (written 'Alethrin') is a synthetic pyrethroid, a pyrethrin-type insecticide (a-ii).
  • Chlorthion is an organophosphorus insecticide (b-iii).
  • Aldicarb is a carbamate insecticide (c-iv).
  • Endrin is an organochlorine of the cyclodiene group, like aldrin and dieldrin (d-i).

Options A, B and D place one or more of these in the wrong chemical class, for example treating endrin as a carbamate or allethrin as an organochlorine.
