Which one of the following is the true description about an animal concerned?

  1. Frog — Body divisible into three regions-head, neck and trunk
  2. Rat — Left kidney is slightly higher in position than the right one
  3. Earthworm — The alimentary canal consists of a sequence of pharynx, oesophagus, stomach, gizzard and intestine
  4. Cockroach — 10 pairs of spiracles (2 pairs on thorax and 8 pairs on abdomen)

Answer

(4) Cockroach — 10 pairs of spiracles (2 pairs on thorax and 8 pairs on abdomen)

Solution

⇒ Frog: as per NCERT, the body is divisible into head and trunk only; a neck and tail are absent — (1) is incorrect.

⇒ Rat: the right kidney lies slightly higher (more anterior) than the left one — (2) is incorrect.

⇒ Earthworm: the alimentary canal runs mouth → buccal cavity → pharynx → oesophagus → gizzard → stomach → intestine; the gizzard comes before the stomach — (3) is incorrect.

⇒ Cockroach: the respiratory system opens through 10 pairs of spiracles, 2 pairs on the thorax and 8 pairs on the abdomen — (4) is correct.

Answer: (4)
