Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
A URL (Uniform Resource Locator) is the web address used to locate a resource on the internet; it begins with a scheme such as http/https followed by a domain. An IP address is a numeric identifier assigned to a device on a network, written in dotted-decimal form for IPv4. A file name identifies a stored file and typically ends in an extension (such as .docx). An email address identifies a mailbox for sending and receiving messages and always contains the '@' symbol separating the username from the domain.
Apply each definition to the examples in List II:
https://www.india.gov.in begins with the scheme https:// followed by a domain, so it is a URL: a → III.
192.158.1.38 is written in dotted-decimal numeric form, so it is an IP Address: b → IV.
report.docx names a stored file with the extension .docx, so it is a File Name: c → I.
george01@yahoo.com contains the '@' symbol separating a username from a domain, so it is an Email Address: d → II.
Each example satisfies exactly one defining feature — a scheme with a domain, a dotted-decimal number, a file extension, or the '@' symbol — so no term can be reassigned to a different example; the pairing above is the only consistent one.
Hence, the correct match is a-III, b-IV, c-I, d-II.
