Match List I with List II. List I (a) Metamerism (b) Canal system (c) Comb plates (d) Cnidoblasts List II (i) Coelenterata (ii) Ctenophora (iii) Annelida (iv) Porifera Choose the correct option from those given below.

Answer: (A) (a)-(iii); (b)-(iv); (c)-(ii); (d)-(i). Metameric segmentation (metamerism) characterises Annelida, so (a)-(iii).

  1. A.(a)-(iii); (b)-(iv); (c)-(ii); (d)-(i)
  2. B.(a)-(iv); (b)-(i); (c)-(ii); (d)-(iii)
  3. C.(a)-(iv); (b)-(iii); (c)-(i); (d)-(ii)
  4. D.(a)-(iii); (b)-(iv); (c)-(i); (d)-(ii)

Correct Answer

(A) (a)-(iii); (b)-(iv); (c)-(ii); (d)-(i)

Solution & Explanation

Metameric segmentation (metamerism) characterises Annelida, so (a)-(iii). The water transport or canal system is found in Porifera, so (b)-(iv). Comb plates are the locomotory structures of ctenophores, so (c)-(ii). Cnidoblasts (stinging cells) define Coelenterata/Cnidaria, so (d)-(i). Hence option A. NCERT Reference: Page 43, line 29
