Match List-I (Amino acid) with List-II (Example)

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

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

The correct answer is Option (1) → (A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(II), (D)-(I)

Basic amino acid (A): Lysine (IV) — side chain has an extra -NH₂ group (positively charged at physiological pH).

Acidic amino acid (B): Proline (III) — Note: Proline is actually neutral (non-polar), not acidic. No true acidic amino acid (e.g., aspartic/glutamic acid) is in List-II, so this is assigned by elimination (likely a question flaw or intent to test recognition).

Neutral amino acid (C): Alanine (II) — simple non-polar/neutral side chain (-CH₃).

Optically inactive amino acid (D): Glycine (I) — achiral (side chain is H, no chiral center).
