(4) A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
Answer: Option (4)
Explanation:
Cocaine is obtained from the leaves of the plant Erythroxylum, hence A is matched with III.
Heroin is a semi-synthetic drug derived from morphine, which is extracted from the latex of Papaver somniferum, so B is matched with IV.
Morphine is a strong analgesic and is used as a sedative in surgery, therefore C is matched with I.
