Which of the following pairs are correctly matched? array|l|l|c|l| & Animals & & Morphological features \ (i) & Crocodile & – & 4-chambered heart \ (ii) & Sea urchin & – & Parapodia \ (iii) & Obelia & – & Metagenesis \ (iv) & Lemur & – & Thecodont \ array

  1. (ii), (iii) and (iv)
  2. only (i) and (iv)
  3. only (i) and (ii)
  4. (i), (iii) and (iv)

Answer

(4) (i), (iii) and (iv)

Solution

(i) As per NCERT, the heart of reptiles is usually three-chambered, but four-chambered in crocodiles ⇒ correct.

(ii) Sea urchin is an echinoderm and moves by tube feet (water vascular system); parapodia are found in annelids such as Nereis ⇒ wrong.

(iii) Obelia shows alternation of generation between the polyp and the medusa forms (metagenesis) ⇒ correct.

(iv) Lemur is a mammal (primate); mammals have thecodont teeth (set in sockets of the jaw bone) ⇒ correct.

∴ (i), (iii) and (iv) are correctly matched.
