Vedclass · Answer

(D) The correct matches are as follows:$i$. Thick cuticle on leaf surface is an adaptation found in many desert plants to reduce transpiration.$ii$. Leaves reduced to spines is a characteristic adaptation of $Opuntia$ (a desert plant) to minimize water loss.$iii$. Desert lizards show behavioral adaptations like burrowing into sand to escape the intense heat of the desert.$iv$. Archaebacteria are extremophiles that can survive in harsh conditions,such as hot springs.Matching these:$i-c$ (Thick cuticle - Desert plants)$ii-d$ (Leaves reduced to spines - Opuntia)$iii-a$ (Burrow into sand - Desert lizards)$iv-b$ (Hot springs - Archaebacteria)Therefore,the correct sequence is $i-c, ii-d, iii-a, iv-b$.

Column $I$	Column $II$
$i$. Thick cuticle on leaf surface	$a$. Desert lizards
$ii$. Leaves reduced to spines	$b$. Archaebacteria
$iii$. Burrow into sand to escape from heat	$c$. Desert plants
$iv$. Hot springs	$d$. Opuntia
