Match List I with List II and select the correct answer using the code given below the Lists
(Mineral) | (Major Source)
A.Iron | 1. Banana, date
B.Potassium | 2. Polak&*8195;
C.Iodine | 3. Iodized common salt
D.Calcium | 4. Milk, egg
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 1 (A-2, B-1, C-3, D-4). This matching correctly identifies the primary dietary sources for essential minerals required by the human body.
- Iron (A-2): Spinach (Palak) is a well-known green leafy vegetable rich in non-heme iron, essential for hemoglobin production.
- Potassium (B-1): Bananas and dates are premium sources of potassium, a vital electrolyte necessary for heart function and muscle contractions.
- Iodine (C-3): In many countries, including India, common salt is fortified with iodine (Iodized salt) to prevent thyroid-related disorders like goiter.
- Calcium (D-4): Milk and eggs are classic sources of calcium, which is fundamental for bone health and dental strength.
Other options are incorrect because they mismatch these established nutritional associations—for instance, Option 3 incorrectly links Iron with Milk/Eggs, which are actually poor sources of iron compared to green leafy vegetables.
