1. Only (a) and (d) are incorrect
2. Only (c) and (d) are correct
3. (a), (b) and (c) are correct

Birds are not characterized by:
1. a fully ossified endoskeleton
2. pneumatic long bones
3. absence of crop and gizzard in the digestive tract

The following schematic diagram of a part of skeleton can be that of a/an:

3. | Bird | 4. | Mammal |
Consider the given two statements:
I: | Birds have a four chambered heart and are warm blooded. |
II: | Respiration in birds is by lungs that are connected to air sacs. |

The bone structure in the following diagram shows:
1. Adaptation for flight in birds
2. Presence of excess of the hemopoietic tissue in mammals
3. Rudimentary limb bones in some repltiles
4. Bone of forelegs of frogs
