The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the organisms Fasciola, Ascaris, Nereis, and Periplaneta, we will analyze each organism based on the options provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Organisms:** - **Fasciola**: A genus of parasitic flatworms, commonly known as liver flukes. - **Ascaris**: A genus of parasitic roundworms, commonly known as intestinal roundworms. - **Nereis**: A genus of polychaete worms, commonly known as ragworms. - **Periplaneta**: A genus that includes the American cockroach. 2. **Analyze the Digestive Systems:** - **Fasciola**: It has an incomplete digestive system. It has a mouth, pharynx, esophagus, and intestine, but does not have an anus. - **Ascaris**: It has a complete digestive system with a mouth and anus. - **Nereis**: It also has a complete digestive system. - **Periplaneta**: It has a complete digestive system. **Conclusion**: Except for Fasciola, all the other organisms (Ascaris, Nereis, and Periplaneta) have a complete digestive system. 3. **Evaluate Fertilization Methods:** - **Ascaris**: Internal fertilization occurs in Ascaris. - **Nereis**: External fertilization occurs in Nereis. **Conclusion**: The statement that Ascaris and Nereis have internal fertilization is incorrect. 4. **Examine Metamerism:** - **Fasciola**: Not metameric. - **Ascaris**: Not metameric. - **Nereis**: Exhibits metamerism (segmentation). - **Periplaneta**: Exhibits metamerism (segmentation). **Conclusion**: The statement that except for Ascaris, all other organisms show metamerism is incorrect. 5. **Check Eye Types:** - **Fasciola**: Lacks eyes. - **Ascaris**: Lacks eyes. - **Nereis**: Possesses simple eyes. - **Periplaneta**: Has compound eyes. **Conclusion**: The statement that Periplaneta has compound eyes while the others have simple eyes is incorrect. ### Final Answer: The correct option regarding the organisms is that **except Fasciola, the rest all have a complete digestive system**.
