The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze each of the provided statements regarding their correctness. Let's break it down step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze the First Statement - **Statement:** RBCs (red blood cells) of humans are not capable of metabolizing glucose to carbon dioxide aerobically. - **Analysis:** This statement is correct. Human RBCs lack mitochondria, which are necessary for aerobic respiration, and therefore rely on anaerobic respiration for their energy needs. ### Step 2: Analyze the Second Statement - **Statement:** No mixing of blood occurs in the heart of fish. - **Analysis:** This statement is also correct. Fish have a two-chambered heart (one atrium and one ventricle), which allows for the separation of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood. ### Step 3: Analyze the Third Statement - **Statement:** With an increase in heart rate, the duration of a single cardiac cycle decreases. - **Analysis:** This statement is true. As the heart rate increases, the time for each cardiac cycle (which includes both systole and diastole) decreases. ### Step 4: Analyze the Fourth Statement - **Statement:** The pacemaker of the human heart is a specialized neural tissue which maintains the rhythmic activity of the heart. - **Analysis:** This statement is partially correct. The pacemaker, known as the sinoatrial (SA) node, does maintain the rhythmic activity of the heart, but it is not a neural tissue; it is a specialized group of cardiac muscle cells. ### Conclusion Based on the analyses: - The first three statements are correct. - The fourth statement is partially correct but contains an inaccuracy regarding the nature of the pacemaker tissue. ### Final Answer The statement that is incorrect (or partially correct) is the fourth one regarding the pacemaker of the human heart. ---
