multiplication by fragmentation.
Fragmentation is a form of asexual
reproduction where a fragment of the
parent breaks off and develops into an
entirely new but genetically identical
individual.
Thus right answer is C.
 
5. Answer: A 6. Answer: C
Sol:
R.H. Whittaker gave the five kingdom
system of Classification. It is based on
complexity of cell that means cell is
prokaryote or eukaryote. The five
kingdoms are monera, protista, fungi,
plantae and animalia. On the basis of
prokaryotes, monera is placed under it
and other kingdom is placed in
eukaryotes.
Hence, the correct answer is four

Commonly known forms of Phycomycetes are a type of fungi which
basidiomycetes are mushrooms, bracket can undergo sexual as well as asexual
fungi or puffballs as they have club- modes of reproduction. The mycelium of
shaped reproductive organ called the this fungus is coenocytic and aseptate.
basidium . Coenocytic means the hyphae contains
many cells in the cytoplasm. The cell
wall formation does not occur after
karyokinesis which results in coenocytic
and aseptate mycelium. Example:
Albugo, Mucor and Rhizopus. But
Neurospora belongs to ascomycetes. So,
the correct option is D.
27. Answer: A 28. Answer: A
Sol:
In Basidiomycetes and Ascomycetes,
plasmogamy (fusion of the cellular
contents of two hyphae but not of the
two haploid nuclei) results in dikaryotic
hyphae in which each cell contains two
haploid nuclei, one from each parent.
Eventually, the nuclear pair fuses to
form the diploid nucleus and thus the
zygote. So, the correct option is A.
Sol:
In the algal fungi (Phycomycetes) the
mycelium in the vegetative phase
usually lacks internal partitions of any
kind. The hyphae are thus multinucleate
and aseptate. The mycelium is a
continuous mass. It grows terminally by
the apical elongation of the hyphae
accompanied by increase in the number
of nuclei by nuclear divisions. The
aseptate, multinucleate mycelium is
called coenocytic. The septa in the
aseptate, coenocytic mycelium,
however, are formed only to cut off
reproductive structures, or to seal off a
damaged portion. So, the correct option
is A.

body cells of the organisms.
Chemotrophs  are organisms that obtain
energy by the oxidation of electron
donors in their environments. Hence,
fungi are heterotrophic.

Rhodophyta (red algae) reproduces
asexually by either fragmentation or by
forming non-motile spores. Sexual
reproduction is oogamous. In oogamy,
female gamete is large and male
gamete is small and both are non-
motile. So, the correct option is A.
Sol:
The main plant body of the bryophyte is
haploid. It produces gametes, hence is
called a gametophyte. The sporophyte is
not free-living but attached to the
photosynthetic gametophyte and derives
nourishment from it. Some cells of the
sporophyte undergo reduction division

Chlorophyll is located within the
thylakoids membrane of the
chloroplast.  It is found in all
photosynthetic organisms, including
green plants, cyanobacteria, and algae.
There are four types of chlorophyll i.e.
chlorophyll a, b, c, and d. Chlorophyll a
is found in all higher plants, algae and
cyanobacteria; chlorophyll  b, found in
higher plants and
green  algae;  chlorophyll  c, found in
diatoms, dinoflagellates and

Yellow-green algae  or
the  Xanthophyceae  (Xanthophytes) are
an important group of heterokont algae.
Most live in fresh water, but some are
found in marine and soil habitats. They
vary from single-celled flagellates to
simple colonial and filamentous forms.
The members of chlorophyceae are
commonly called green algae. They are
usually grass green due to the
dominance of pigments chlorophyll a
and b.
The members of phaeophyceae or
brown algae possess chlorophyll a, c,
carotenoids and xanthophylls.
Rhodophyta are commonly called red
algae because of the predominance of
the red pigment, r-phycoerythrin in their
body. Hence, the correct pair is
Xanthophyta →Yellow - Green algae.
