Q. No.A plant shows thallus level of organization. It shows rhizoids and is haploid. It needs water to complete its life cycle because the male gametes are motile. Identify the group to which it belongs to.
| 1. | Pteridophytes | 2. | Gymnosperms |
| 3. | Monocots | 4. | Bryophytes |
Antheridium of bryophytes produce _______ antherozoids.
| 1. | Non-motile | 2. | Uni-flagellate |
| 3. | Biflagellate | 4. | Ciliate |
Bryophytes are attached to the substratum by rhizoids that are:
| 1. | Unicellular | 2. | Multicellular |
| 3. | Acellular | 4. | Unicellular or multicellular |
Ecologically important first colonizers of rocks are:
| 1. | Lichens | 2. | Algae |
| 3. | Gymnosperms | 4. | Angiosperms |
All the following are characteristics of bryophytes except:
1. spore producing
2. dominant gametophyte
3. lignified tissues
4. producing antheridium and archegonium
What is not true regarding bryophytes?
1. Zygote undergoes reduction division immediately
2. Sporophyte is not free living
3. Haploid spores are produced by meiosis
4. The sex organs are multi-cellular
The bryophyte with most economic importance will be:
| 1. | peat moss | 2. | liverwort |
| 3. | hornwort | 4. | Polytrichum |
The bryophytes are also called as the amphibians of plants kingdom mainly because:
1. they respire through the moist epidermis
2. they depend on water for sexual reproduction
3. they require more water than most plants
4. they lack true roots
The economic importance of bryophytes include:
| I: | A moss provides peat used as a packing material |
| II: | They are early colonizers of land in ecological succession |
| III: | They can decompose rocks |
| IV: | They can prevent soil erosion |
| 1. | Only I, II and III | 2. | Only I, III and IV |
| 3. | Only II, III and IV | 4. | I, II, III and IV |
| Statement I: | Bryophytes usually occur in damp, humid and shaded localities and are not truly ‘successful’ on land. |
| Statement II: | They are dependent on water for sexual reproduction. |
| 1. | Statement I is correct and Statement II is incorrect |
| 2. | Both Statement I and Statement II are correct and Statement II explains Statement I |
| 3. | Statement I is incorrect and Statement II is correct |
| 4. | Both Statement I and Statement II are correct but Statement II does not explain Statement I |
