The correct Answer is:
To solve the question of which pair is NOT correctly matched, we will analyze each option one by one. ### Step 1: Analyze Option 1 **Option 1: Red sea - Trichodesmium erythreum (BGA)** - Trichodesmium erythreum is a type of blue-green algae (BGA) that can cause the water in the Red Sea to appear reddish due to its blooms. - **Conclusion**: This pair is correctly matched. ### Step 2: Analyze Option 2 **Option 2: Red tides - Rhodymenia (Red algae)** - Red tides are caused by the rapid growth of certain phytoplankton, particularly dinoflagellates like Gonyaulax, not by Rhodymenia, which is a type of red algae. - **Conclusion**: This pair is NOT correctly matched. ### Step 3: Analyze Option 3 **Option 3: Red snow - Chlamydomonas nivalis (Green algae)** - Chlamydomonas nivalis is a green alga that can cause red snow due to its pigmentation. - **Conclusion**: This pair is correctly matched. ### Step 4: Analyze Option 4 **Option 4: Red rust of tea - Cephaleuros virescence (Green algae)** - Cephaleuros virescence is indeed a green alga that causes red rust disease in tea plants. - **Conclusion**: This pair is correctly matched. ### Final Conclusion The pair that is NOT correctly matched is **Option 2: Red tides - Rhodymenia (Red algae)**. ---
