Options
- AA-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I
- BA-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I
- CA-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II
- DA-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
Correct answer
B. A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I
Step-by-step solution
Platyhelminthes have specialised cells called flame cells which help in osmoregulation and excretion. Aschelminthes have a complete alimentary canal with a well-developed muscular pharynx. Members of class Chondrichthyes have tough skin containing minute placoid scales. Members of class Reptilia have their body covered by dry and cornified skin, epidermal scales or scutes. Therefore, the correct match is A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I. Answer: A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I
