Answer
C. i-d, ii-c, iii-b, iv-a
Show Explanation
Explanation
The matching is Gaucher disease–glucocerebrosidase, Hunter syndrome–iduronate-2-sulfatase, Tay–Sachs disease–hexosaminidase A and phenylketonuria–phenylalanine hydroxylase. Thus i-d, ii-c, iii-b, iv-a is correct. These inherited disorders involve deficient activity of the corresponding enzymes.
