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

Answer

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

### Step-by-Step Solution:

1. **Identify ICNB**:
- ICNB stands for International Code of Nomenclature for Bacteria. It is associated with the naming of bacteria, which includes bacteriophages as they are viruses that infect bacteria.
- **Match**: ICNB → (i) bacteriophage.

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

3. **Identify ICVCN**:
- ICVCN stands for International Code of Viral Classification and Nomenclature. This code is used for the classification of viruses, including those that infect specific bacteria like Vibrio cholerae.
- **Match**: ICVCN → (iii) Vibrio cholerae.

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

### Final Matches:
- A. ICNB → (i) bacteriophage
- B. ICNCP → (iv) cultivated plants
- C. ICVCN → (iii) Vibrio cholerae
- D. ICZN → (ii) animals

### Summary of Matches:
- A → i
- B → iv
- C → iii
- D → ii
