The correct Answer is:
To determine the incorrect match among the given options, we will analyze each pair one by one: 1. **Phylloclad and Opuntia**: - A phylloclad is a modified stem that can be flat or cylindrical and is capable of photosynthesis. - Opuntia, commonly known as the prickly pear cactus, has flat stems that perform photosynthesis. - Therefore, this is a correct match. 2. **Stem Thorn and Citrus**: - In citrus plants, the thorns are indeed modified stems. - These thorns are sharp and pointed structures that develop from the stem. - Thus, this is also a correct match. 3. **Rhizome and Potato**: - A rhizome is a type of underground stem that grows horizontally. - However, potato is not a rhizome; it is a tuber, which is a swollen part of a stolon (a modified stem). - Therefore, this is an incorrect match. 4. **Comb and Jamekant**: - In the case of Jamekant (also known as Jamun or Syzygium), the stem modification is referred to as a comb. - This is a correct match. Based on the analysis, the incorrect match is: **Rhizome and Potato**. ### Final Answer: The incorrect match is **Rhizome and Potato**.
