match the following: a. ICNB (column I) and (i) bacteriophage (column II). (b) ICNCP(column I) and (ii) animals(column II). (c)ICVCN( column I) and (iii) Vibrio cholerae (column II). (d)ICZN(column I) and (iv) cultivated plants (column II)

Options

A. a(iii), b(iv), c(i), d(ii)
B. a(iii), b(ii), c(iv), d(i)
C. a(ii), b(iii), c(i), d(iv)
D. a(iii), b(i), c(iv), d(ii)

Answer

To solve the matching question, we need to identify the correct associations between the items in Column I (ICNB, ICNCP, ICVCN, ICZN) and Column II (bacteriophage, animals, Vibrio cholerae, cultivated plants).

### Step-by-Step Solution:

1. **Identify ICNB**:
- ICNB stands for the **International Code of Nomenclature for Bacteria**.
- The organism that corresponds to this code is **Vibrio cholerae** (a type of bacteria).
- **Match**: ICNB → (iii) Vibrio cholerae.

2. **Identify ICNCP**:
- ICNCP stands for the **International Code of Nomenclature for Cultivated Plants**.
- This code is related to **cultivated plants**.
- **Match**: ICNCP → (iv) cultivated plants.

3. **Identify ICVCN**:
- ICVCN stands for the **International Code of Viral Nomenclature**.
- This code is used for naming **bacteriophages** (viruses that infect bacteria).
- **Match**: ICVCN → (i) bacteriophage.

4. **Identify ICZN**:
- ICZN stands for the **International Code of Zoological Nomenclature**.
- This code is used for naming **animals**.
- **Match**: ICZN → (ii) animals.

### Final Matches:
- a. ICNB → (iii) Vibrio cholerae
- b. ICNCP → (iv) cultivated plants
- c. ICVCN → (i) bacteriophage
- d. ICZN → (ii) animals

### Summary of Matches:
- (a) ICNB → (iii) Vibrio cholerae
- (b) ICNCP → (iv) cultivated plants
- (c) ICVCN → (i) bacteriophage
- (d) ICZN → (ii) animals

### Final Answer:
The correct matching is:
- a - iii
- b - iv
- c - i
- d - ii
