The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the dichotomous key and identify the incorrect statement about tissues P, Q, R, S, T, and U, we will follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Type of Tissue:** - The first part of the key states: "The cells of tissue have walls." This indicates we are dealing with plant tissues. If the cells have no walls, we would be dealing with animal tissues. 2. **Classify Plant Tissues:** - If the tissue is made of only one type of cell, it is classified as **simple tissue**. If it is made of more than one type of cell, it is classified as **complex tissue**. 3. **Classify Animal Tissues:** - If the tissue lines the fallopian tubes, it is identified as **R (ciliated epithelium)**. If it transports nutrients, it is identified as **S (blood)**. 4. **Identify Simple Tissues:** - For simple tissues, if the cells store air, it is classified as **P (aerenchyma)**. If it is mainly a mechanical tissue, it is classified as **U (sclerenchyma)**. 5. **Identify Complex Tissues:** - If the tissue conducts water, it is classified as **T (xylem)**. If it conducts organic nutrients, it is classified as **Q (phloem)**. 6. **Evaluate the Statements:** - Now we need to evaluate the statements regarding P, Q, R, S, T, and U to find the incorrect one: - **P**: Aerenchyma is found in aquatic floating plants. - **Q**: Phloem conducts organic nutrients. - **R**: Ciliated epithelium lines the fallopian tubes. - **S**: Blood transports nutrients. - **T**: Xylem conducts water. - **U**: Sclerenchyma possesses uniform thickening of lignin. 7. **Identify the Incorrect Statement:** - The statement that "S can be xylem" is incorrect because S is identified as blood, not xylem. Therefore, the incorrect statement is regarding tissue S. ### Conclusion: The incorrect statement regarding tissues P, Q, R, S, T, and U is that **S is xylem** when it is actually blood. ---
