Match List I and List II and select the correct answer using the codes below the Lists

List I | List II
a. Shooting star | 1.Planet
b. Titan | 2. Meteor
c. Saturn | 3. Satellite
d. Hailey's Comet | 4. Comet

Result
Your answer: —  ·  Correct: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 (a-2; b-3; c-1; d-4). This matching is accurate based on fundamental astronomical classifications:

  • Shooting star (a-2): These are not stars but Meteors—small pieces of rock or dust that burn up upon entering Earth's atmosphere, creating a streak of light.
  • Titan (b-3): It is the largest Satellite (moon) of Saturn and the only moon known to have a dense atmosphere.
  • Saturn (c-1): It is the sixth Planet from the Sun, distinct for its extensive ring system.
  • Halley's Comet (d-4): Named after Edmond Halley, it is a famous periodic Comet that orbits the Sun approximately every 76 years.

Options 2, 3, and 4 are incorrect because they misidentify these bodies; for instance, identifying Saturn as a meteor or Titan as a planet contradicts established scientific facts.
