Vedclass · Answer

(C) The mode of excretion depends on the availability of water and the metabolic needs of the organism.$1$. $Penguin$ (birds) are $Uricotelic$ (excrete uric acid), not $Guanotelic$.$2$. $Human$ $beings$ are $Ureotelic$ (excrete urea).$3$. $Land$ $snails$ are $Uricotelic$ (excrete uric acid to conserve water), so the pair $Land$ $snails - Ureotelic$ is incorrect.$4$. $Amphibian$ $larva$ (tadpoles) are $Ammonotelic$ (excrete ammonia).Note: Both $A$ and $C$ are technically incorrect. However, in standard biology contexts, land snails are strictly $Uricotelic$. Since the question asks for the incorrect pair, $C$ is the most appropriate choice as land snails are well-known $Uricotelic$ organisms.

$a$. Bony fish	$1$. Crustaceans
$b$. Terrestrial amphibian	$2$. Ammonotelic
$c$. Land snails	$3$. Ureotelic
$d$. Prawn	$4$. Uricotelic
