In which one of the following organisms its excretory organs are correctly stated?

  1. Humans :- Kidneys, sebaceous glands and tear glands
  2. Earthworm :- Pharyngeal, integumentary and septal nephridia
  3. Cockroach :- Malpighian tubules and enteric caeca
  4. Frog :- Kidneys, skin and buccal epithelium

Answer

(2) Earthworm :- Pharyngeal, integumentary and septal nephridia

Solution

As per NCERT, earthworm has three types of nephridia – septal nephridia, integumentary nephridia and pharyngeal nephridia – which are its excretory organs.

∵ Tear glands of humans are not excretory organs, enteric caeca of cockroach are digestive glands, and buccal epithelium of frog is a respiratory (not excretory) surface,

∴ only the earthworm is correctly matched.
