The correct Answer is:
To determine the correct matchings of animals and their respiratory organs, we can analyze each option one by one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Silver Fish - Trachea**: - Silverfish are classified as insects and possess a respiratory system that includes tracheae. Therefore, this matching is **correct**. 2. **Scorpion - Book Lung**: - Scorpions are arachnids and they have specialized respiratory organs known as book lungs. Thus, this matching is also **correct**. 3. **Sea Squirt - Pharyngeal Gill Slits**: - Sea squirts (or tunicates) have pharyngeal gill slits as part of their respiratory system. Hence, this matching is **correct** as well. 4. **Dolphin - Skin**: - Dolphins are mammals and they possess lungs for respiration, not skin. Therefore, this matching is **incorrect**. ### Conclusion: The correct matchings are: - A. Silver Fish - Trachea (Correct) - B. Scorpion - Book Lung (Correct) - C. Sea Squirt - Pharyngeal Gill Slits (Correct) - D. Dolphin - Skin (Incorrect) Thus, the correct answer is options A, B, and C.
