Question: 154. Match List I with List II :
| List I | List II |
|---|---|
| A. Pons | I. Provides additional space for Neurons, regulates posture and balance. |
| B. Hypothalamus | II. Controls respiration and gastric secretions |
| C. Medulla | III. Connects different regions of the brain |
| D. Cerebellum | IV. Neuro secretory cells |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
(1) A-II, B-III, C-I, D-IV
(2) A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I
(3) A-I, B-III, C-II, D-IV
(4) A-II, B-I, C-III, D-IV
Answer: Option (2)
Explanation:
Pons acts as a bridge and connects different regions of the brain, so A matches with III.
Hypothalamus contains neurosecretory cells that produce hormones regulating body functions,
so B matches with IV.
Medulla oblongata controls vital involuntary functions such as respiration and gastric secretions,
so C matches with II.
Cerebellum provides additional space for neurons and plays a major role in regulation of posture and balance, so D matches with I.
Therefore, the correct matching is A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I, corresponding to option (2).
