The gemmae produced by some liverworts function as:
(1) A water gathering structure
(2) A light capturing structure
(3) A sexual structure
(4) An asexual structure
All the following differentiate gymnosperms from the higher cryptogams except:
(1) Presence of an independent green gametophyte
(2) development of an ovule
(3) Formation of the pollen tube
(4) Presence of cambium
Heterosporous pteridophyte includes both:
1. Lycopodium and Equisetum
2. Selaginella and Salvinia
3. Psilotum and Phylloglossum
4. Selaginella and Equisetum
The life cycle is not haplo-diplontic in:
1. Bryophytes
2. Pteridophytes
3. Polysiphonia
4. Fucus
Asexaul reproduction by pear shaped biflagellate zoospores is seen in most:
1. Green algae
2. Brown algae
3. Red algae
4. Both (2) and (3)
All the following pteridophytes belong to the Class Pteropsida except:
1. Dryopteris
2. Pteris
3. Selaginella
4. Adiantum
Sexual reproduction by non-flagellated but similar in size gametes is seen in:
1. Chlamydomonas
2. Volvox
3. Spirogyra
4. Fucus
In mosses, the sex organs are seen in:
1. Protonema stage
2. Leafy stage
3. Capsule of the sporophyte
4. Seta of the sporophyte
The features seen in the gymnosperm Cycas include:
I. Coralloid roots
II. Unbranched stems
III. Pinnate persistent leaves for a few years
IV. Male cones and megasporophyllys borne on same plant
1. I and II only
2. I and IV only
3. I, II and III only
4. I, II, III, and IV
Both bryophytes and pteridophytes:
1. are vascular cryptogams
2. have a dominant sporophyte
3. reproduce only sexually
4. are haplo-diplontic
