In addition to Bombyx mori, there are several other organisms, which produce commercial silk. Match the name of the species with the correct commercial name of their produce by selecting appropriate answers from the given codes. \( \begin{array}{llll} & \text { List I } & & \text { List II } \\ \text { A } & \text { Antheraea pernyi } & 1 & \text { Eri silk } \\ \text { B } & \text { Attacus atlas } & 2 & \text { Oak tasar } \\ \text { C } & \text { Ailanthus } & 3 & \text { Fagara silk } \\ \text { D } & \text { Pinna squamosa } & 4 & \text { Mussel silk }\end{array} \)

  • A. A- 2, B- 3, C-1, D- 4
  • B. A- 4, B- 3, C- 2, D-1
  • C. \( A-1, B-2, C-4, D-3 \)
  • D. A- 3, B- 2, C-1, D-4

Step-by-step solution

Antheraea pernyi produces oak tasar silk (A-2). Attacus atlas produces fagara silk (B-3). Ailanthus (silkworm) produces eri silk (C-1). Pinna squamosa produces mussel silk (D-4). Thus option A correctly matches all.
