The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the incorrect matching of genus name, its characters, and its phylum, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Options We need to analyze the options provided in the question. The options typically consist of a genus name, two characteristics, and a phylum name. ### Step 2: Analyze Each Option We will evaluate each option to determine if the genus name, its characteristics, and its phylum are correctly matched. 1. **Option A: Periplaneta (Cockroach)** - Characteristics: Jointed appendages, exoskeleton made of chitin. - Phylum: Arthropoda. - **Analysis**: This is a correct match. Cockroaches belong to Arthropoda and have jointed appendages and an exoskeleton. 2. **Option B: Cyclops (Water Flea)** - Characteristics: Asymmetrical body, canal system. - Phylum: Porifera. - **Analysis**: This is incorrect. Cyclops belongs to the phylum Arthropoda, not Porifera. The canal system is a characteristic of sponges (Porifera), not Cyclops. 3. **Option C: Echinodermata (Starfish)** - Characteristics: Water vascular system, marine organisms. - Phylum: Echinodermata. - **Analysis**: This is a correct match. Starfish are indeed echinoderms with a water vascular system. 4. **Option D: Gastropoda (Snail)** - Characteristics: Unsegmented body, calcareous shell. - Phylum: Mollusca. - **Analysis**: This is a correct match. Snails belong to Mollusca and have an unsegmented body and a calcareous shell. ### Step 3: Identify the Incorrect Match From our analysis, we see that Option B is the only one that is incorrectly matched. Cyclops is not a member of Porifera but rather belongs to the phylum Arthropoda. ### Conclusion The incorrect match is **Option B: Cyclops (Water Flea) - Asymmetrical body, canal system - Phylum Porifera**. ### Final Answer **The answer is Option B.** ---
