Select the mismatch.
- Large central vacuoles – Animal cells
- Methanogens – Prokaryotes
- Gas vacuoles – Green bacteria
- Protists – Eukaryotes
Answer
(1) Large central vacuoles – Animal cells
Solution
As per NCERT, plant cells possess a large central vacuole, whereas animal cells have small vacuoles or lack them. ⇒ (1) is the mismatch.
∵ Methanogens are archaebacteria, i.e., prokaryotes.
∵ As per NCERT, gas vacuoles are found in blue-green, purple and green photosynthetic bacteria.
∵ Protists are unicellular eukaryotes.
