  3. CI-C, II-B, III-A, IV-D
  4. DI-C, II-B, III-D, IV-A

Explanation

To understand why option B is the correct answer, we must match each disease from List I with its corresponding category in List II. I. Haemophilia matches with B Genetic disease. It is an inherited disorder where the blood does not clot properly due to a lack of specific clotting proteins. II. Diabetes matches with C Hormonal disorder. It occurs when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin or the body cannot effectively use the insulin it produces. III. Rickets matches with A Deficiency disease. It is caused by a lack of Vitamin D, calcium, or phosphate, leading to softening and weakening of bones in children. IV. Ringworm matches with D Fungal infection. It is a common skin infection caused by a fungus, characterized by a circular, red, itchy rash. Matching these correctly leads to the sequence I-B, II-C, III-A, and IV-D, which corresponds to Option B.
