Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: (A) P–4; Q–3; R–1; S–5

Explanation

The source’s Garmet/garnet fitting is a hinge; an aldrop is a sliding bolt; the mortise fitting is the inset lock; and a gusset is a connecting/reinforcing plate. Hence P–4, Q–3, R–1, S–5, A. These distinguish hardware functions rather than fastening materials alone.
