AIIMS 2017 Biology Classification of Animals MCQ Question
Identify the incorrect match from those given below
Jelly Fish, Aurelia Aurita, Scyphozoa
Paddle Worm, Chaetopterus, Polychaeta
Cray Fish, Oniscus, Crustacea
Acorn worm, Balanoglossus, Enteropneusta
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Option A is incorrect because Aurelia aurita, commonly known as the moon jellyfish, belongs to the class Scyphozoa, but the term "jellyfish" is a common name that can refer to multiple classes, including Hydrozoa and Cubozoa. In contrast, options B, C, and D correctly match the organisms with their respective classifications: Chaetopterus is indeed a polychaete worm, Oniscus is a terrestrial isopod within Crustacea, and Balanoglossus is accurately classified under Enteropneusta. This highlights the importance of precise taxonomic classification in biological sciences.
