Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Concept
A mountain pass is a natural low route through a mountain range.
In a matching question, first identify the range crossed by each pass and then convert the four associations into the given code.
Application
Zoji La crosses the Great Himalayan Range; therefore A is paired with 3.
Banihal Pass lies in the Pir Panjal Range; therefore B is paired with 4.
Photu La lies in the Zaskar Range; therefore C is paired with 2.
Khardung La crosses the Ladakh Range; therefore D is paired with 1.
Cross-check
Range | Pass | Code |
|---|---|---|
Great Himalayan Range | Zoji La | A-3 |
Pir Panjal Range | Banihal | B-4 |
Zaskar Range | Photu La | C-2 |
Ladakh Range | Khardung La | D-1 |
Hence the matching code is A-3, B-4, C-2, D-1.
