Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

(2) A-I, B-III, C-II, D-IV
(3) A-III, B-I, C-II, D-IV
(4) A-IV, B-II, C-III, D-I
Answer: Option (3)
Explanation:
Common cold is caused by rhinoviruses, so A is matched with III.
Haemozoin is a dark brown crystalline pigment produced by the malarial parasite Plasmodium during digestion of haemoglobin,
hence B is matched with I.
Widal test is a diagnostic test used for the detection of typhoid fever caused by Salmonella typhi,
therefore C is matched with II.
Allergy is commonly triggered by allergens such as dust mites, so D is matched with IV.
Thus, the correct matching is A-III, B-I, C-II, D-IV.
