The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the given options contains jaws, we can analyze each option step by step: ### Step 1: Understand the Classification of Animals - The question asks about the presence of jaws in certain animals. Jaws are primarily found in the superclass Pisces, which includes both cartilaginous fishes (Chondrichthyes) and bony fishes (Osteichthyes). ### Step 2: Analyze Each Option 1. **Herdmania**: - Herdmania belongs to the subphylum Urochordata. - Urochordates are not fishes and do not possess jaws. 2. **Fish**: - The term "fish" generally refers to members of the superclass Pisces. - Pisces includes both Chondrichthyes (cartilaginous fishes) and Osteichthyes (bony fishes), both of which have jaws. 3. **Petromyzon**: - Petromyzon (lamprey) belongs to the class Cyclostomata. - Cyclostomata are known as jawless fishes, meaning they do not have jaws. 4. **Amphioxis**: - Amphioxis (lancelet) belongs to the subphylum Cephalochordata. - Like Urochordates, Cephalochordates are not fishes and do not possess jaws. ### Step 3: Conclusion - Based on the analysis, the only option that contains jaws is **B. Fish**. The other options (A, C, and D) do not have jaws. ### Final Answer: The correct option is **B. Fish**. ---
