The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to evaluate the matches between the evolved types of vegetables from wild cabbage and their characteristics. Let's analyze each option step by step: 1. **Cauliflower**: The characteristic mentioned is that it is formed from flower clusters. This is correct. Cauliflower is indeed the flower cluster of the wild cabbage. 2. **Kale**: The characteristic mentioned is that it is formed from leaves. This is also correct. Kale is a variety of cabbage that is cultivated for its edible leaves. 3. **Brussels sprouts**: The characteristic mentioned is that they are formed from fleshy lateral buds. This is correct. Brussels sprouts are indeed developed from the lateral buds of the wild cabbage. 4. **Coleslaw (or cold ruby)**: The characteristic mentioned is that it is formed from fleshy terminal buds. This is incorrect. Coleslaw is actually made from shredded raw cabbage, not from terminal buds. The fleshy terminal buds do not produce coleslaw; they are typically cut and used as a separate vegetable. Based on this analysis, the incorrect match among the options is the one that states coleslaw is formed from fleshy terminal buds. ### Final Answer: The incorrect match is the one that states that coleslaw is formed from fleshy terminal buds.
