1. | The photosynthetic pigments are located within definite chloroplasts. |
2. | Chloroplasts are discoid in shape in all members of chlorophyceae. |
3. | Most of the members have one or more storage bodies called pyrenoids, which contain proteins besides starch, located in the chloroplasts. |
4. | Some green algae may store food in the form of oil droplets. |
Column I | Column II | |
1. | Main photosynthetic pigment | Chlorophyll a, b |
2. | Cell wall | Inner layer of cellulose and outer layer of pectose |
3. | Stored food | Starch |
4. | Flagellar number and insertion | 2-8. unequal. basal |
I: | Ectocarpus is profusely branched and may reach a height of 100 meters. |
II: | Kelps are simple branched filamentous brown algae. |
I. | Asexual reproduction is by biflagellate zoospores that are pear shaped and have two unequal and laterally attached flagella. |
II. | The gametes are pyriform [pear shaped] and bear two laterally attached flagella. |
1. | Frond | 2. | Stipe |
3. | Holdfast | 4. | Rhizoid |
Sexual reproduction is oogamous and accompanied by complete post-fertilization developments in the members of:
1. Chlorophyceae
2. Phaeophyceae
3. Rhodophyceae
4. Both Chlorophyceae and Phaeophyceae
1. | Polysiphonia | 2. | Laminaria |
3. | Gracilaria | 4. | Gelidium |
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 |
1. | They are dependent on water for sexual reproduction. |
2. | Archegonium is flask shaped and produces multiple eggs. |
3. | Sporophyte is attached to the photosynthetic gametophytes and derives nourishment from it. |
4. | The antherozoids are released into water. |
Regarding Marchantia:
I: | The thallus is dorsi-ventral and closely appressed to the substrate. |
II: | The plant is monoecious. |
1. | Both I and II are incorrect |
2. | Only I is incorrect |
3. | Only I is correct |
4. | Both I and II are correct |
