The correct Answer is:
To solve the question of identifying the correct pair of genus and family, we will analyze each option provided: 1. **Option I: Homo - Primata** - The genus **Homo** refers to humans and related species. The correct family for the genus **Homo** is **Hominidae**, not **Primata**. Therefore, this pair is incorrect. 2. **Option II: Musca - Diptera** - The genus **Musca** refers to house flies and similar insects. The correct family for the genus **Musca** is **Muscidae**, not **Diptera**. The order **Diptera** includes all flies, but it is not a family. Therefore, this pair is also incorrect. 3. **Option III: Mangifera - Sapindales** - The genus **Mangifera** includes mango trees. The correct family for the genus **Mangifera** is **Anacardiaceae**, not **Sapindales**. **Sapindales** is an order that includes multiple families, but it is not a family itself. Therefore, this pair is incorrect. 4. **Option IV: Triticum - Poaceae** - The genus **Triticum** refers to wheat. The correct family for the genus **Triticum** is **Poaceae**, which is the family of grasses. This pair is correct. After analyzing all the options, we find that the only correct pair is: **Correct Answer: (d) IV - Triticum - Poaceae**
