The correct Answer is:
To solve the question of selecting the incorrect statement, we will analyze each provided statement one by one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Statement 1: "The lifespan is not necessarily correlated with the size or complexity of the organism."** - This statement is correct. Lifespan does not always depend on the size or complexity of an organism. For example, smaller organisms like mice have shorter lifespans than larger organisms like elephants. 2. **Statement 2: "Some multicellular organisms are immortal."** - This statement is incorrect. All multicellular organisms have a natural lifespan and eventually die. While some organisms, like certain jellyfish, exhibit biological immortality, they are not truly immortal in the sense that they cannot die from external factors or disease. 3. **Statement 3: "The lifespan is a specific trait of each organism."** - This statement is correct. Each organism has a defined lifespan that is characteristic of its species, influenced by genetics and environmental factors. 4. **Statement 4: "The lifespan of mango tree is much shorter than that of peepal tree."** - This statement is correct. The lifespan of a peepal tree can range from 900 to 1500 years, while mango trees typically live for about 80-100 years. ### Conclusion: The incorrect statement among the options is **Statement 2: "Some multicellular organisms are immortal."** ---
