Which one of the following groups of structures/ organs have similar function? 

  • Typhlosole in earthworm, intestinal villi in rat and contractile vacuole in Amoeba.

  • Nephridia in earthworm, Malpighian tubules in cockroach and urinary tubules in rat

  • Antennae of cockroach, tympanum of frog and clitellum of earthworm

  • Incisors of rat, gizzard (proventriculus) cockroach and tube feet of starfish


B.

Nephridia in earthworm, Malpighian tubules in cockroach and urinary tubules in rat

Nephridia in earthworm, malpighian tubules in cockroach and urinary tubules in rat are all excretory in function.

Typhlosole in earthworm is used to increase intestine surface area for more efficient absorption of digested nutrients. Contractile vacuole in Amoeba helps in regulating water content of the cell.

Antennae of cockroach has an important role for studying the multifunctional sensory appendages and for perceiving physical objects. Tympanum of frog transmits sound waves to the middle and inner ear and allows it to hear in both air and below water. Clitellum of earthworms is used in sexual reproduction.

Incisors of rats are open- rooted teeth that grow throughout life. Gizzard or proventriculus of cockroach is the grinding chamber. It can grind the food with swallowed stones and pass it back to the true stomach. Tube feet in starfish is basically used for locomotion, feeding and respiration.
