Consider the following four statements:
(A) | The sporophyte in liverworts is more elaborate than that in mosses |
(B) | Salvinia is heterosporous |
(C) | The life cycle in all seed-bearing plants is diplontic |
(D) | In Pinus male and female cones are borne on different trees |
The two wrong statements together are:
1. Statements (A) and (B)
2. Statements (A) and (C)
3. Statements (A) and (D)
4. Statements (B) and (C)
1. Dryopteris
2. Salvinia
3. Adiantum
4. Equisetum
Which one of the following is considered important in the development of seed habit?
1. | Dependent sporophyte | 2. | Heterospory |
3. | Halplontic life cycle | 4. | Free-living gametophyte |
Genera like Selaginella and Salvinia produce two kinds of spores. Such plants are known as
1. | Homosporous | 2. | Heterosporous |
3. | Homosorus | 4. | Heterosorus |
From an 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 |
