A.

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

B.

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

C.

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

D.

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

Correct option is C

Folds are classified based on limb inclination and symmetry. The correct matches are:

  1. Symmetrical Fold (A) → Both Limbs Incline Uniformly (II)

    • In a symmetrical fold, both limbs dip at equal angles on either side of the axial plane.
    • The axial plane is vertical, and the pressure is equal from both sides.
  2. Asymmetrical Fold (B) → Unequal and Irregular Limbs (I)

    •  In asymmetrical folds, one limb is steeper than the other, making them unequal and irregular.
    • Caused by unequal compressional forces.
  3. Monoclinal Fold (C) → One Limb Inclines at a Right Angle (IV)

    • A monocline has one limb that remains horizontal, while the other limb bends steeply at an almost right angle.
    • Common in areas with fault displacement.
  4. Isoclinal Fold (D) → Both Limbs Become Parallel (III)

    • Isoclinal folds are highly compressed, making both limbs nearly parallel to each other.
    • Often associated with intense mountain-building processes.
