Text Solution

Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
D

Statement : Lion, Leopard, and Tiger belong to the same genus Panthera, not family Panthera (their family is Felidae).

Statement : Cats belong to the family Felidae and dogs belong to the family Canidae. The statement incorrectly reverses them by saying they belong to "Canidae and Felidae respectively".

Statement : Plant families Convolvulaceae and Solanaceae are included in the order Polymoniales (or Solanales), not Sapindales.

Statement (G): A herbarium is a storehouse for plant specimens, not animal specimens.

Statement (H): The Indian Botanical Garden is located in Howrah, and the National Botanical Research Institute is located in Lucknow. The statement swaps their locations.

Statement (L): For Mangifera indica (Mango), the class is Dicotyledonae, the order is Sapindales, and the family is Anacardiaceae. The statement lists them in the wrong order.

Statement (M): For wheat, the family is Poaceae, the order is Poales, and the class is Monocotyledonae. The statement lists them incorrectly.
