Solution

To determine which of the following options is incorrect, we need to examine each statement one by one:

  1. Whale-Lungs: Whales are mammals and have lungs, so this statement is correct.

  2. Tadpole larva-Gills: Tadpole larvae are the immature stage of frogs and some other amphibians. During this stage, they have gills for respiration, so this statement is correct.

  3. Earthworm-moist skin: Earthworms do not have lungs or gills. Instead, they breathe through their moist skin, so this statement is correct.

  4. Spider-lungs: Spiders are arachnids and do not have lungs. They have a respiratory system called book lungs or tracheae, which are different from lungs. Therefore, this statement is incorrect.

Based on the above analysis, option (4) Spider-lungs is the incorrect statement.
