The correct Answer is:
To determine which matches are correct, let's analyze each option step by step: 1. **Wild Pea - Petiolar Tendril**: - A petiolar tendril arises from the petiole of the leaf. However, in the case of wild pea (Pisum sativum), the tendril is not petiolar but rather a modified leaf structure. Therefore, this match is **incorrect**. 2. **Sweet Pea - Leaflet Tendril**: - The sweet pea (Lathyrus odoratus) has tendrils that arise from the leaflets. This is a correct match as the tendrils in sweet pea are indeed leaflet tendrils. Therefore, this match is **correct**. 3. **Gloriosa superba - Stipular Tendril**: - Stipular tendrils arise from the stipules of the leaf. In Gloriosa superba, the tendrils do not arise from stipules but are modified leaf structures. Hence, this match is **incorrect**. 4. **Australian Acacia - Phyllodes**: - Phyllodes are flattened leaf-like structures that are actually modified stems. In Australian Acacia, phyllodes serve the function of leaves, such as photosynthesis. This match is **correct**. Now, summarizing the correctness of the matches: - (i) Wild pea - Incorrect - (ii) Sweet pea - Correct - (iii) Gloriosa superba - Incorrect - (iv) Australian Acacia - Correct Thus, the correct matches are: - Sweet pea - Leaflet Tendril - Australian Acacia - Phyllodes ### Final Answer: The correct matches are (ii) Sweet pea - Leaflet tendril and (iv) Australian Acacia - Phyllodes. ---
