To determine which of the following pairs is mismatched, we need to analyze each option carefully: 1. **Agnatha - Jawless fishes**: - Agnatha refers to a class of vertebrates that do not have jaws. This classification is correct. 2. **Gnathostomata - Jawed fishes**: - Gnathostomata includes all vertebrates that possess jaws. This classification is also correct. 3. **Chondrichthyes - Bony fishes**: - Chondrichthyes refers to cartilaginous fishes, such as sharks and rays, which have a skeleton made of cartilage rather than bone. This classification is incorrect as it mismatches with bony fishes. 4. **Osteichthyes - Bony fishes**: - Osteichthyes refers to the class of fishes that have a bony skeleton. This classification is correct. From the analysis, we can conclude that the mismatched pair is: **Chondrichthyes - Bony fishes** (this is incorrect; Chondrichthyes are cartilaginous fishes). ### Final Answer: The mismatched pair is **Chondrichthyes - Bony fishes**. ---
