Identify the correctly matched pairs:
A Desertification A type of land degradation in drylands in which biological productivity is lost due to natural processes or induced by human activities whereby fertile areas become increasingly arid.
B Soil erosion A form of soil degradation, it is the denudation of the fertile top layer of the soil.
C Water-logging It is the saturation of soil with water where the soil is nearly saturated with water much of the time such that its air phase is restricted and anaerobic conditions prevail.
D Soil Salinity It is the salt content in the soil; the process of increasing the salt content is known as salinization.

Study the given diagram regarding accelerated or cultural eutrophication of a water body:
1. Normally the cause if an excess of nutrients applied to the soil.
2. Some nutrients leach into the soil and get drained into the water body.
3.  Some nutrients run off over the ground into the body of water.
4.  The excess nutrients cause an algal bloom.
7.  Eventually, the algal bloom dies, sinks to the bottom of the lake, gets decomposed by bacteria which increases the dissolved oxygen in the water body.
8. Increased dissolved oxygen content is dangerous to larger life forms. 

The correctly matched pairs include:
1. All 2. All except 7 and 8
3. All except 1, 3, and 4 4. Only 1 and 2
