The correct Answer is:
To solve the question of finding the incorrect pair, we will analyze each option provided in the question step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the First Pair: Bauman's Capsule and Glomerular Filtration** - Bauman's capsule (also known as Bowman's capsule) is a double-walled cup-like structure that encases the glomerulus in the nephron. - Its primary function is to participate in the filtration of blood from the glomerular capillaries. - **Conclusion**: This pair is correctly matched. 2. **Identify the Second Pair: Proximal Convoluted Tubule and Absorption of Sodium and Potassium Ions** - The proximal convoluted tubule (PCT) is responsible for reabsorbing a significant amount of substances from the filtrate back into the blood. - It reabsorbs approximately 65% of water, sodium, potassium, and nearly 100% of glucose and amino acids. - **Conclusion**: This pair is also correctly matched. 3. **Identify the Third Pair: Distal Convoluted Tubule and Absorption of Glucose** - The distal convoluted tubule (DCT) is involved in the secretion of certain ions and the reabsorption of water and sodium, but it does not absorb glucose. - Most glucose reabsorption occurs in the proximal convoluted tubule, and the DCT primarily has a secretory function. - **Conclusion**: This pair is incorrectly matched. 4. **Identify the Fourth Option: None of These** - This option suggests that none of the pairs are incorrect, which is not true since we have identified an incorrect pair. - **Conclusion**: This option is also incorrect. ### Final Answer: The incorrect pair is **Distal Convoluted Tubule and Absorption of Glucose**. ---
