Match the following species with their families :
| Species Name | Family |
|---|---|
| (a) Madhuca indica | 1. Fabaceae |
| (b) Tectona grandis | 2. Dipterocarpaceae |
| (c) Shorea robusta | 3. Sapotaceae |
| (d) Butea monosperma | 4. Verbenaceae |
Answer: C
The correct matching is (a)-3, (b)-4, (c)-2, (d)-1.
- Madhuca indica (mahua): Sapotaceae (3).
- Tectona grandis (teak): Verbenaceae (4) in the older classification; it is now placed in Lamiaceae.
- Shorea robusta (sal): Dipterocarpaceae (2).
- Butea monosperma (palas, flame of the forest): Fabaceae (1), the legume family.
The other codes swap sal and palas, or place mahua in the wrong family, so only (a)-3, (b)-4, (c)-2, (d)-1 is right.
