AIIMS 2017 Biology Classification of Animals MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 11

Identify the incorrect match from those given below

A

Jelly Fish, Aurelia Aurita, Scyphozoa

B

Paddle Worm, Chaetopterus, Polychaeta

C

Cray Fish, Oniscus, Crustacea

D

Acorn worm, Balanoglossus, Enteropneusta

Correct Answer

Option A

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.
