| List-I | List-II |
|---|---|
| (A) The foetus movement starts and hair appears on the head | (I) 24 weeks of pregnancy |
| (B) The foetus develops limbs and digits | (II) 20 weeks of pregnancy |
| (C) The foetus develops external genital organs | (III) 8 weeks of pregnancy |
| (D) The foetus body is covered with fine hair; eyelids separate and eyelashes are formed | (IV) 12 weeks of pregnancy |
Solution
Related Formula
Foetal Development Timeline: aligned 8 weeks (2 months) &arrow Limbs and digits 12 weeks (1st trimester) &arrow External genital organs 20 weeks (5th month) &arrow First movement and hair on head 24 weeks (2nd trimester) &arrow Fine hair, eyelids separate, eyelashes aligned
Core Logic
Matching each milestone with gestation period:
- (A) First movement and head hair arrow 5th month / 20 weeks (II)
- (B) Limbs and digits arrow 2nd month / 8 weeks (III)
- (C) External genital organs arrow 12 weeks / end of 1st trimester (IV)
- (D) Body fine hair, eyelids separate arrow 24 weeks / end of 2nd trimester (I)
Step 1: Final Combination
The correct mapping is A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I.
Pattern Recognition
Sees: "foetus movement hair head". Shortcut: Movement/head hair = 5th month (20 weeks). Eye lashes/separated eyelids = 24 weeks.
