| LIST-I (Types of industries) | LIST-II (Base) | ||
| A. | Leather | I. | Chemical Based |
| B. | Timber | II. | Mineral-based |
| C. | Jewellery | III. | Animal Based |
| D. | Synthetic Fibre | IV. | Forest Based |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I
A. Leather — this matches III. Animal Based.
B. Timber — this matches IV. Forest Based.
C. Jewellery — this matches II. Mineral-based. Jewellery industries use non-ferrous metallic minerals, like the aluminium and copper industries.
D. Synthetic Fibre — this matches I. Chemical Based.
NCERT (2025-26): “Industries based on Inputs/Raw Materials … On the basis of the raw materials used, the industries are classified as: (a) agro-based; (b) mineral based; (c) chemical based; (d) forest based: and (e) animal based.…” “Mineral based Industries These industries use minerals as a raw material. Some industries use ferrous metallic minerals which contain ferrous (iron), such as iron and steel industries but some use non-ferrous metallic minerals, such as aluminium, copper and jewellery industries. Many industries use non-metallic minerals such as cement and pottery industries.…” “Chemical based Industries Such industries use natural chemical minerals, e.g. mineral-oil (petroleum) is used in petrochemical industry. Salts, sulphur and potash industries also use natural minerals. Chemical industries are also based on raw materials obtained from wood and coal. Synthetic fibre, plastic, etc. are other examples of chemical based industries.” “Forest based Raw Material using Industries The forests provide many major and minor products which are used as raw material. Timber for furniture industry, wood, bamboo and grass for paper industry, lac for lac industries come from forests.” “Animal based Industries Leather for leather industry and wool for woollen textiles are obtained from animals. Besides, ivory is also obtained from elephant’s tusks.…” |
