Question
Match the following organisms with their respective characteristics:
Column-I: (a) Pila, (b) Bombyx, (c) Pleurobrachia, (d) Taenia Column-II: (i) Flame cells, (ii) Comb plates, (iii) Radula, (iv) Malpighian tubules
(a)-(iii), (b)-(ii), (c)-(iv), (d)-(i)
(a)-(iii), (b)-(ii), (c)-(i), (d)-(iv)
(a)-(iii), (b)-(iv), (c)-(ii), (d)-(i)
(a)-(ii), (b)-(iv), (c)-(iii), (d)-(i)
Based on the internal structure and physiological features described in the sources, the organisms are matched as follows: (a) Pila (Apple snail) belongs to the phylum Mollusca; the sources state that the mouth in this phylum contains a file-like rasping organ for feeding called the radula . (b) Bombyx (Silkworm) belongs to the phylum Arthropoda; the sources specify that in arthropods, excretion takes place through Malpighian tubules . (c) Pleurobrachia belongs to the phylum Ctenophora; the sources describe these organisms as having eight external rows of ciliated comb plates that assist in locomotion . (d) Taenia (Tapeworm) is a member of the phylum Platyhelminthes; the sources explain that these animals possess specialised cells called flame cells that function in osmoregulation and excretion . This results in the matching sequence: (a)-(iii), (b)-(iv), (c)-(ii), (d)-(i).
This question aligns with the NEET BIOLOGY syllabus, specifically targeting concepts from Animal Kingdom. Mastering this topic is crucial for scoring well in the upcoming medical entrance examinations. Solving conceptually related problems will help you understand the nuances of these concepts and improve your problem-solving speed.
