  • Question
  • Which one of the following pairs about organ/part that helps in locomotion is not correctly matched?


  • Options
  • A. Euglena : Flagellum
  • B. Paramecium : Cilia
  • C. Nereis : Pseudopodia
  • D. Starfish : Tubefeet

  • Correct Answer
  • Nereis : Pseudopodia 

    Explanation

    Euglena move by a flagellum (plural ? flagella), which is a long whip-like structure that acts like a little motor.

    The paramecium uses its cilia to sweep the food along with some water into the cell mouth after it falls into the oral groove.

    The underside of the starfish is covered with hundreds of tube feet, which it uses for walking around, for attaching tightly to rocks, and for holding on to prey.

    Nereis possess setae and parapodia for locomotion
