From evolutionary point of view, retention of the female gametophyte with developing young embryo on the parent sporophyte for some time, is first observed in :

1. Gymnosperms

2. Liverworts

3. Mosses

4. Pteridophytes

Choose the incorrect statement:-

1.  Gametophyte of Gymnosperm are always Dioecious

2.  Sporophyte of Gymnosperm are always heterosporous.

3.  Sporophyte of pteridophytes may be monoecious or dioecious.

4.  Gametophyte of pteridophytes may be monoecious or dioecious.

Choose the incorrect match from following:-

1.  Cycas-branched stem.

2.  Salvinia-heterosporous sporophyte.

3.  Marchantia-Elaters.

4.  Chlorella-used by space travellers.

Assertion: Seeds are formed in Gymnosperms.

Reason: Female gametophyte is retained within megasporangium in Gymnosperms.

Find out the incorrect statement about the
Rhodophyceae.
1. Majority are marine with greater concentrations
found in the warmer areas.

2. They are also found at great depths of oceans
where relatively little light penetrates.

3. Usually reproduce vegetatively by fragmentation.

4. They reproduce asexually by biflagellate
zoospores.

Coralloid roots of gymnosperms are/have
(1) Irregular and possess large number of roots hairs.
(2) Symbiotic association with Rhizobium.
(3) Symbiotic association with N₂ - fixing cyanobacteria. 
(4) VAM

In pteridophytes, gametophyte that develops in the homosporous species is usually
(1) Monoecious and has events, precursor to the seed habit.
(2) Dioecious and does not lead to seed habit.
(3) Monoecious and does not lead to seed habit. 
(4) Dioecious and has events, precursor to the seed habit.
