Question

Match the following: 

• A. A-II, B-IV, C-V, D-III
• B. A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III
• C. A-V, B-IV, C-III, D-I
• D. A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II

Hint:

- Ichthyophis is a limbless amphibian (Caecilian).
- Hyla is a tree frog, adapted for arboreal life.
- Bufo refers to toads, which are amphibians with dry, warty skin.
- Rhacophorus is a flying frog, using webbed feet for gliding.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Identifying Correct Matches
Ichthyophis (A) belongs to the order Gymnophiona and is a limbless amphibian → (II).
Hyla (B) is an arboreal frog commonly known as the tree frog → (IV).
Bufo (C) is the zoological name for toads → (I).
Rhacophorus (D) is known as the flying frog due to its webbed feet, which help in gliding → (III).
Step 2: Correct Pairing
Thus, the correct match is:

\[ \textbf{A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III.} \]

Answer 2

To solve the problem, we need to match the zoological names of amphibians with their corresponding common names.

1. Analyzing the Zoological Names and Common Names:
A: Ichthyophis - This is a genus of amphibians commonly known as Toads.
B: Hyla - This is a genus of amphibians commonly known as Limbless amphibian (often referred to as tree frogs or some related species).
C: Bufo - This is a genus of amphibians commonly known as the Flying frog (often known for some species that can glide).
D: Rhacophorus - This is a genus of amphibians commonly known as Tree frogs (often characterized by their tree-dwelling behavior).

2. Analyzing the Matching:
A corresponds to II (Toad).
B corresponds to IV (Limbless amphibian).
C corresponds to I (Flying frog).
D corresponds to III (Tree frog).

3. Conclusion:
Based on the analysis, the correct matching is:

Final Answer:
The correct option is (B) A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III.
