The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the following is not a correct match of the part of the alimentary canal in earthworm, its location, and function, we will analyze each option step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Parts of the Alimentary Canal**: - We will look at the four parts of the alimentary canal mentioned in the question: stomach, typhlosol, gizzard, and intestinal caeca. 2. **Examine Each Option**: - **Option A**: Stomach - **Location**: 9 to 14 segments - **Function**: Neutralizes acidity using calciferous glands. - **Analysis**: This is correct as the stomach is indeed located in segments 9 to 14 and contains calciferous glands that help neutralize acidity. - **Option B**: Typhlosol - **Location**: 26 to 95 segments - **Function**: Increases the effective area of absorption in the intestine. - **Analysis**: This is also correct as the typhlosol does increase the surface area for absorption in the intestine. - **Option C**: Gizzard - **Location**: 8 to 9 segments - **Function**: Helps in grinding soil particles and decayed leaves. - **Analysis**: This is correct as the gizzard is located in segments 8 to 9 and is responsible for grinding food. - **Option D**: Intestinal Caeca - **Location**: 15 to 26 segments - **Function**: Produces proteolytic enzymes. - **Analysis**: This is incorrect. The intestinal caeca are actually located in segments 24 to 26, not 15 to 26. While the function of producing proteolytic enzymes is correct, the location is not. 3. **Conclusion**: - The only incorrect match is **Option D**, where the location of the intestinal caeca is wrongly stated. ### Final Answer: **Option D** is not a correct match of the part of the alimentary canal in earthworm, its location, and function. ---
