Match List I with List II:
| List I Age (Years) | List II (Anthropometric Measure) |
|---|---|
| a. 1½ | I. Mid upper arm circumference |
| b. 3 | II. Weight according to age |
| c. 8 | III. Body Mass Index |
| d. 42 | IV. Head and chest circumference |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Answer: D
The paper's match is a-IV, b-I, c-II, d-III.
- At 1½ years, head and chest circumference are compared: by this age chest circumference should exceed head circumference.
- At 3 years, mid upper arm circumference is a standard screening measure for malnutrition in children aged 1 to 5.
- At 8 years, weight for age is used to assess growth.
- At 42 years, an adult, body mass index is the standard measure.
Several measures can be used across these ages, so the key rests on the textbook pairing of each age with its most typical measure. Every other option assigns BMI to a child or head and chest circumference to an older person, which is clearly wrong.
