The correct Answer is:
To solve the question of identifying the incorrectly matched pair, we will analyze each option provided in the question step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze the first option - Patromyzone - **Description**: Patromyzone is matched with "body divided into scales and paired fins." - **Analysis**: Patromyzone, also known as lampreys, belong to a group of jawless fish. They do not have scales and lack paired fins. Therefore, this match is incorrect. ### Step 2: Analyze the second option - Squalidon - **Description**: Squalidon is matched with "operculum present but ear bladder absent." - **Analysis**: Squalidon is a type of cartilaginous fish (related to sharks). Cartilaginous fish do not have an operculum; this structure is found in bony fish. Therefore, this match is also incorrect. ### Step 3: Analyze the third option - Exocetus - **Description**: Exocetus is matched with "a heart with two chambers and sinus venosus." - **Analysis**: Exocetus, commonly known as flying fish, has a heart with two chambers (like all bony fish) and possesses a sinus venosus. This match is correct. ### Step 4: Analyze the fourth option - Rana - **Description**: Rana is matched with "cold-blooded with 10 pairs of cranial nerves and mesonephric kidneys." - **Analysis**: Rana, which includes frogs, is indeed cold-blooded and has 10 pairs of cranial nerves along with mesonephric kidneys. This match is correct. ### Conclusion After analyzing all the options, we find that the incorrectly matched pairs are: 1. Patromyzone - Incorrectly matched with scales and paired fins. 2. Squalidon - Incorrectly matched with operculum present. However, since the question asks for one incorrectly matched pair, the most clear and definitive incorrect match is **Squalidon**. ### Final Answer The incorrectly matched pair is **Squalidon** with "operculum present but ear bladder absent." ---
