The correct Answer is:
To solve the question of identifying the incorrect pair, we will analyze each option provided and determine whether the descriptions match the organisms listed. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Organisms and Their Classifications:** - The question provides a list of organisms and asks us to identify incorrect pairs. 2. **Examine the First Option: Sphagnum** - Sphagnum is a member of the bryophyte category and is commonly known as bog moss or peat moss. - **Conclusion:** This pair is correct. 3. **Examine the Second Option: Riccia** - Riccia is also a bryophyte and is classified under liverworts, which are a type of bryophyte. - **Conclusion:** This pair is correct. 4. **Examine the Third Option: Cycadophyta** - Cycadophyta refers to a group of gymnosperms, specifically cycads. The mention of "Psycothoracy" seems to be a misinterpretation; however, cycads do produce large ovules, and they are indeed gymnosperms. - **Conclusion:** This pair is correct, although the terminology used may be confusing. 5. **Examine the Fourth Option: Pinus** - Pinus is a genus of gymnosperms and is known to produce two types of spores: microspores and megaspores. This means that Pinus is heterosporous, not homosporous as stated in the option. - **Conclusion:** This pair is incorrect because it incorrectly identifies Pinus as homosporous. ### Final Answer: The incorrect pair is the fourth option regarding Pinus, as it is heterosporous, not homosporous. ---
