Statoreceptors are responsible for maintaining balance and equilibrium, and are located in the semi-circular canals of the internal ear.

Proprioceptors provide information about the position of body parts and are found in joints, muscles, and tendons.

Baroreceptors detect changes in blood pressure and are located in the walls of the atria and carotid sinus.

Gustatoreceptors are responsible for the sense of taste and are located in the taste buds of the tongue.

Thus, the correct matching is A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I.
