Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is 1)Chloroplast 2)Lichen 3)Plague 4)Collenchyma 5)Sea horse.

Explanation:

1. Elaioplast, chloroplast, amyloplast:

Plastids can be of different types

1. Chloroplasts (green plastids),
2. Amyloplasts (plastids containing starch),
3. Elaioplasts (lipid containing plastids).

• Chloroplast is the odd one because of it being a coloured plastid and not a nutrient containing plastid like other two.

2. Ulva, Chara, lichen, Spirogyra:

• Lichen is the odd one because it is a symbiotic partnership of two separate organisms, a fungus and an alga, whereas all the others are algae.

3. Tuberculosis, Dengue, Encephalitis, Plague:

• Plague is the odd one because The Black Death, or bubonic plague, was one of mankind's worst pandemics, killing more than 25 million people, or at least one-third of Europe's population, during the fourteenth century, evoking direct parallels to our current coronavirus.
• The others are diseases caused by bacteria and virus but they are not considered pandemic.

4. Parenchyma, Collenchyma, Aerenchyma, Chlorenchyma:

• Collenchyma is the odd one for not being a type of Parenchyma.
• Aerenchyma and Chlorenchyma are types of Parenchyma.

5. Sea anemone, Sea urchin, Asterias, Sea horse.:

• Sea horse is the only chordate whereas the others are non- chordates thus it is the odd one.
