The correct Answer is:
To determine which statement is incorrect among the given options, we will analyze each statement one by one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Analyze the First Statement:** - **Statement:** "Mesoglia is present between the ectoderm and the endoderm in ovalia." - **Analysis:** Mesoglia is indeed a jelly-like substance found between the ectoderm and endoderm in organisms like cnidarians (e.g., jellyfish, corals). Therefore, this statement is **correct**. 2. **Analyze the Second Statement:** - **Statement:** "Radial symmetry is found in estrioles." - **Analysis:** Radial symmetry is characterized by body parts arranged around a central axis, and it is commonly found in organisms such as jellyfish and sea anemones. If "estrioles" refers to organisms with radial symmetry, this statement is also **correct**. 3. **Analyze the Third Statement:** - **Statement:** "Fasciula is a pseudocelomate animal." - **Analysis:** Fasciula, which is a genus of flatworms, is actually classified as an acoelomate, meaning it lacks a body cavity. Therefore, this statement is **incorrect**. 4. **Analyze the Fourth Statement:** - **Statement:** "Tinea is a triploblastic animal." - **Analysis:** Tinea, commonly known as tapeworms, are indeed triploblastic as they develop from three embryonic layers: ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm. Thus, this statement is **correct**. ### Conclusion: The incorrect statement among the options provided is the third one: "Fasciula is a pseudocelomate animal."
