Which of the following is odd?

Options

A. Hominidae
B. Primates
C. Diptera
D. Poales

Answer

To determine which option is odd, we need to analyze the given terms based on their taxonomic classification.

1. **Identify the options:**
- Option A: Hominidae
- Option B: Primates
- Option C: Diptera
- Option D: Pools

2. **Classify each term:**
- **Hominidae**: This is a family in the biological classification. It includes humans and their relatives.
- **Primates**: This is an order that includes families like Hominidae, which contains humans.
- **Diptera**: This is also an order, specifically for flies and mosquitoes.
- **Pools**: This term seems to be a typographical error or misinterpretation, but if we consider "Poaceae" (the grass family), it is also a family. However, if we take "Pools" as it is, it does not fit into standard biological classification.

3. **Compare the classifications:**
- Hominidae is a family.
- Primates and Diptera are both orders.
- Pools does not fit into the standard classification.

4. **Identify the odd one out:**
- Since Hominidae is the only family among the options, it stands out as the odd one out.

5. **Conclusion:**
- Therefore, the odd one out is **Option A: Hominidae**.
