The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "Which of the following is not correct with respect to the neural system of the insects?", we will analyze the statements provided and identify the incorrect one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Insect Neural System**: - Insects belong to the phylum Arthropoda, which has a well-developed nervous system. This includes a central nervous system (CNS) composed of various ganglia. 2. **Identifying the Components of the Insect Nervous System**: - The central nervous system of insects includes: - **Cerebral Ganglion** (also known as the brain or supraesophageal ganglion) - **Sub-esophageal Ganglion** - **Circumesophageal Connectives** - **Double Ventral Cords** - **Thoracic Ganglia** (3 pairs) - **Abdominal Ganglia** (6 pairs) 3. **Analyzing Each Statement**: - **Statement 1**: "The brain is present." - This is correct as insects have a brain (cerebral ganglion). - **Statement 2**: "The neural system of insect is simply composed of the network of neurons." - This statement is incorrect. The insect nervous system is not just a simple network of neurons; it consists of multiple ganglia and a complex structure. - **Statement 3**: "The neural system of insects is better organized than that of Hydra." - This is correct. Hydra has a simple nerve net, while insects have a more complex and organized nervous system. - **Statement 4**: "A number of ganglia present along with the neural tissues in insects." - This is also correct, as insects have numerous ganglia throughout their body. 4. **Conclusion**: - The incorrect statement regarding the neural system of insects is **Statement 2**: "The neural system of insect is simply composed of the network of neurons." ### Final Answer: The statement that is not correct with respect to the neural system of insects is: **"The neural system of insect is simply composed of the network of neurons."** ---
