Your answer

Choose one option, then check your answer.

(i) \rightarrow (a), (ii) \rightarrow (b), (iii) \rightarrow (c), (iv) \rightarrow (d)

(i) \rightarrow (a), (ii) \rightarrow (c), (iii) \rightarrow (b), (iv) \rightarrow (d)

(i) \rightarrow (d), (ii) \rightarrow (b), (iii) \rightarrow (c), (iv) \rightarrow (a)

(i) \rightarrow (a), (ii) \rightarrow (c), (iii) \rightarrow (d), (iv) \rightarrow (b)
