What is true about Nereis, scorpion, cockroach and silver fish?

  1. They all possess dorsal heart
  2. None of them is aquatic
  3. They all belong to the same phylum
  4. They all have jointed paired appendages

Correct answer: They all belong to the same phylum

Solution

Nereis is an annelid, while scorpion, cockroach, and silverfish are arthropods, so they do not all share the same phylum. Therefore, the given correct answer is not actually true for the listed animals; among the options, only the phylum-based statement would be true if all four were arthropods, but Nereis is not.
