The 30-Second Exam Hall Shortcut: ⚡ NCERT Table 9.5 Verbatim Match

⏱️ Save ~20 seconds

GLUT-4 = Enables glucose transport (IV); Insulin = Hormone (I); Trypsin = Proteolytic enzyme (II); Collagen = Intercellular ground substance (III)! Matching: A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III!

1 A. GLUT-4: Glucose transporter 4 enables glucose transport into cells (IV).
2 B. Insulin: peptide Hormone regulating blood sugar (I).
3 C. Trypsin: proteolytic digestive Enzyme (II).
4 D. Collagen: most abundant animal protein, acts as Intercellular ground substance (III).
5 Matching order: A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III -> Option (3) / C.

Step-by-Step Rigorous Workflow & Mathematical Proof

Step 1

Review NCERT Table 9.5 (Some Proteins and Their Functions)

- Collagen: Intercellular ground substance. - Trypsin: Enzyme. - Insulin: Hormone. - Antibody: Fights infectious agents. - Receptor: Sensory reception (smell, taste, hormone, etc.). - GLUT-4: Enables glucose transport into cells.

Step 2

Execute Direct Pairwise Match

A -> IV B -> I C -> II D -> III

Step 3

Conclude Option

Matches Option (3) uniquely.

2 (2)
✗ Incorrect
Verdict & Scientific Reason:

Mismatches GLUT-4 with Intercellular ground substance.

⚠️
Student Fallacy (Why candidates pick this trap): Mismatches GLUT-4 with Intercellular ground substance.
3 (3)
✓ 100% Correct
Verdict & Scientific Reason:

Accurately pairs all four proteins with their respective physiological roles from NCERT Table 9.5.

💡
Why this is airtight: None.
4 (4)
✗ Incorrect
Verdict & Scientific Reason:

Mismatches GLUT-4 with Hormone.

⚠️
Student Fallacy (Why candidates pick this trap): Mismatches GLUT-4 with Hormone.
⚠️

NTA Trap Alert: GLUT-4 Function Memorization

Confusing GLUT-4 as an enzyme or receptor rather than a glucose transporter.

🛡️ How to avoid the -1 mark: GLUT = GLUcose Transporter type 4.
