Match List I with List II and select the correct answer using the code given below the lists: List I (Fishing Bank) A. Dogger Bank B. Grand Bank C. Great Barrier Reef D. Tonga Trench Island List II (Coast) 1. Newfoundland Coast 2. Australia Coast 3. North Sea 4. East of Fiji Code : A B C D

The matching of fishing banks and geographical features to their respective coasts is as follows: Dogger Bank is a well-known shallow sandbank located in the North Sea, off the coast of England [c1, t5, t7]. The Grand Bank is a major fishing ground situated on the continental shelf of North America, specifically off the Newfoundland Coast [c1, c3, t2]. The Great Barrier Reef, the world's largest coral reef system, is located off the coast of Queensland, Australia [c2, c4, t3]. The Tonga Trench is a deep-sea trench in the South Pacific Ocean; while the list mentions 'Tonga Trench Island' and 'East of Fiji', the Tonga Trench itself lies to the east of the Fiji islands and north of New Zealand, aligning with the geographical proximity to Fiji in the provided options. Therefore, the correct sequence is A-3, B-1, C-2, D-4.
