ii. Hepatitis → Liver (d)
iii. Gonorrhea → Reproductive tract (b)
iv. Mumps → Salivary glands (a)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. i - c, ii - d, iii - b, iv - a.
The correct matching of diseases with the organs they affect is as follows:
i. Tuberculosis → Lungs (c), since it primarily damages the respiratory system.
ii. Hepatitis → Liver (d), because it causes inflammation of the liver.
iii. Gonorrhea → Reproductive tract (b), as it is a sexually transmitted infection.
iv. Mumps → Salivary glands (a), leading to painful swelling in these glands.
This classification helps understand the relationship between diseases and the body parts they commonly affect.
