    A - III, B - I, C - IV, D - II
  • Correct answer
    B
    A - III, B - IV, C - I, D - II
  • C
    A - III, B - II, C - I, D - IV
  • D
    A - II, B - I, C - IV, D - III

Solution

Amylose is a water-soluble component of starch, making up about $15-20\%$ of it. Thus, A matches with III.

Fructose is a monosaccharide found in many plants and is commonly known as fruit sugar. Thus, B matches with IV.

Maltose is a disaccharide formed from two units of glucose joined with an $\alpha(1\rightarrow4)$ glycosidic bond. Thus, C matches with I.

Waxes are simple lipids which are esters of long-chain fatty acids with long-chain monohydric alcohols. Thus, D matches with II.

The correct matching is A - III, B - IV, C - I, D - II.

Answer: A - III, B - IV, C - I, D - II

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
