Match the following group of organisms with their respective distinctive characteristics and select the correct option:
| Organisms | Characteristics | ||
| (a) | Platyhelminthes | (i) | Cylindrical body with no segmentation |
| (b) | Echinoderms | (ii) | Warm-blooded animals with direct development |
| (c) | Hemichordates | (iii) | Bilateral symmetry with incomplete digestive system |
| (d) | Aves | (iv) | Radial symmetry with indirect development |
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
A.
Step-by-step solution
| Organisms | Characteristics |
| Platyhelminthes | They are triploblastic, acoelomates having bilateral symmetry with the incomplete digestive system. |
| Echinoderms | Adults show pentaradial symmetry, while the embryonic show bilateral symmetry. The mode of embryonic development is indirect. |
| Hemichordates | They are triploblastic, coelomates having cylindrical bodies with no segmentation |
| Aves | Aves and mammals have a four-chambered heart, that prevents the mixing of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood and hence are warm-blooded. The mode of embryonic development is direct. |
