The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to identify the incorrect statement among the four provided statements. Let's analyze each statement step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze the Statements 1. **Statement 1**: "The altered understanding that fungi and members of the Monera and Protista having cell walls have now been excluded from plant A." - This statement is correct. Fungi, Monera (bacteria), and Protista are indeed classified separately from the plant kingdom based on their characteristics. 2. **Statement 2**: "Prokaryotes, single-celled eukaryotes, multicellular eukaryotes, and fungi of heterotrophic organism are found in Monera kingdom." - This statement is also correct. The Monera kingdom includes prokaryotic organisms (bacteria) and some single-celled eukaryotes. 3. **Statement 3**: "Numerical taxonomy is based on chromosome number, structure and behavior." - This statement is incorrect. Numerical taxonomy is based on observable characteristics of organisms, not specifically on chromosome number or structure. The study of chromosomes falls under cytotaxonomy. 4. **Statement 4**: "Chemotaxonomy where we discuss chemical constituents of plants to resolve confusion." - This statement is correct. Chemotaxonomy involves the classification of organisms based on their chemical constituents. ### Step 2: Conclusion The incorrect statement is **Statement 3**: "Numerical taxonomy is based on chromosome number, structure and behavior."
