The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the correct matching of scientific name, family, and common name, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Components The scientific name consists of two parts: the genus name and the species name. The genus name is capitalized, while the species name is in lowercase. Both names are italicized. ### Step 2: Analyze the Given Options We have several options to evaluate: 1. **Batrachospermum** - Family: **Rhodophyceae** - Common Name: **Frogspan** 2. **Spirogyra** - Family: **Chlorophyceae** - Common Name: **Waternet** 3. **Lycopodium** - Family: **Lycopodiaceae** - Common Name: **Sanchevium** 4. **Selaginella** - Family: **Lycopodiaceae** - Common Name: **Little Clubmoss** ### Step 3: Verify Each Option - **Option 1**: Batrachospermum is indeed a red algae, but it belongs to the family **Rhodophyceae**, not **Rhodosai**. The common name "Frogspan" is not widely recognized. - **Option 2**: Spirogyra belongs to the family **Chlorophyceae**, and "Waternet" is a common name used for it. This option seems correct. - **Option 3**: Lycopodium belongs to the family **Lycopodiaceae**, but "Sanchevium" is not a recognized common name for it. - **Option 4**: Selaginella is a member of the family **Selaginellaceae**, not **Lycopodiaceae**, and "Little Clubmoss" is not a correct common name for it. ### Step 4: Identify the Correct Option From the analysis, **Option 2** (Spirogyra - Chlorophyceae - Waternet) is the only option where the scientific name, family, and common name are correctly matched. ### Final Answer The correct answer is **Option 2: Spirogyra - Chlorophyceae - Waternet**. ---
