Vedclass · Answer

(C) In earthworms,nephridia are classified based on their location and the way they discharge waste:$1$. Septal nephridia $(P)$ are present on both sides of the intersegmental septa of segment $15$ to the last. They discharge their waste into the intestine,hence they are enteronephric $(I)$.$2$. Integumentary nephridia $(Q)$ are attached to the lining of the body wall of segment $3$ to the last. They discharge their waste directly to the exterior,hence they are exonephric $(II)$.$3$. Pharyngeal nephridia $(R)$ are present as three paired tufts in segments $4, 5,$ and $6$. They discharge their waste into the alimentary canal,hence they are enteronephric $(I)$.Therefore,the correct matching is: $P-I, Q-II, R-I$.

Column-$I$	Column-$II$
$P$. Septal nephridia	$I$. Enteronephric
$Q$. Integumentary nephridia	$II$. Exonephric
