Match the List-I and List-II and select the correct answer from the codes given below :

List IList II
(a) Glaciers(1) Castle Kopjes
(b) Coasts(2) Chute
(c) River(3) Crevasse
(d) Karst(4) Cusps

  • A.a-3, b-1, c-2, d-4
  • B.a-4, b-3, c-1, d-2
  • C.a-3, b-4, c-2, d-1
  • D.a-4, b-2, c-1, d-3

Answer: C

The keyed match is a-3, b-4, c-2, d-1.

  • Glaciers: a crevasse is a deep crack in a glacier's ice (a-3).
  • Coasts: cusps (beach cusps) are regular crescent-shaped scallops along a beach (b-4).
  • River: a chute is a channel a river cuts across the neck of a meander or a bar (c-2).
  • That leaves castle kopjes for karst (d-1).

Strictly, castle kopjes are granite tors of the African savanna rather than karst forms, so the last pair is filled by elimination; the first three pairs are unambiguous and fit only this option. Options B and D place cusps with glaciers, and option A puts castle kopjes on the coast, so all break a pair that is certain.
