The correct Answer is:
To solve the question of identifying the mismatched pair regarding types of pollination and their examples, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Types of Pollination**: - Familiarize yourself with the different types of pollination: Anemophily (wind), Hydrophily (water), Entomophily (insects), and Ornithophily (birds). 2. **Analyze Each Option**: - **Option A**: Anemophily - Example: Cannabis - Anemophily refers to pollination by wind. Cannabis is indeed a correct example. - **Option B**: Hydrophily - Example: Jostera - Hydrophily refers to pollination by water. Jostera is a correct example of hydrophily. - **Option C**: Entomophily - Example: Salvia - Entomophily refers to pollination by insects. Salvia is a correct example of entomophily. - **Option D**: Ornithophily - Example: Adensonia - Ornithophily refers to pollination by birds. However, Adensonia is known for bat pollination, not bird pollination, making this a mismatched pair. 3. **Identify the Mismatched Pair**: - After analyzing all options, it is clear that **Option D** is the mismatched pair because Ornithophily should involve bird pollination, while Adensonia is associated with bat pollination (which is known as Chiropterophily). 4. **Conclusion**: - The mismatched pair is **Option D**: Ornithophily - Adensonia. ### Final Answer: The mismatched pair is **Option D**: Ornithophily - Adensonia. ---
