Q. No.Identify the group of fungi that is not correctly matched with all the characters given below:
1.
Phycomycetes:
Mycelium – aseptate and coenocytic / Asexual reproduction by motile zoospores or by nonmotile aplanospores / spores – endogenously produced in the sporangium
2.
Ascomycetes:
Mycelium – unbranched and septate / Asexual spores are conidia / Conidia produced endogenously on conidiophores.
3.
Basidiomycetes:
Mycelium–branched and septate / Asexual spores are generally not found.
4.
Deuteromycetes:
Only the asexual or vegetative phase of these fungi are known.

Identify the incorrect statement:
| 1. | Virus has a protein coat called capsid made of small subunits called capsomeres. |
| 2. | The core has the genetic material - either RNA or DNA or both. |
| 3. | The capsomeres are arranged in helical or icosahedral forms. |
| 4. | Viruses can infect any type of organism. |
Identify the incorrecty statement:
1. Numerical Taxonomy is based on all observable characteristics.
2. More weightage is given to reproductive characters and all other characters are given equal importance in numerical taxonomy.
3. Cytotaxonomy is based on cytological information like chromosome number, structure, behaviour
4. Chemotaxonomy uses the chemical constituents of the plant
Identify the incorrectly matched pair:
1. Diatoms: Chief producers in oceans
2. Dinoflagellates: Red tides
3. Slime moulds: Spores dispersed by water
4. Euglenoids: Protein rich pellicle
The domain Archaea is not characterized by:
(1) Pseudopeptidoglycan in cell wall
(2) Linear chromosomes
(3) Introns present is some genes
(4) Methanogeneisis as unique metabolism
Members of Kingdom Protista:
1. are primarily aquatic
2. do not have membrane bound organelles
3. are all ciliated or flagellated
4. reproduce exclusively by asexual means

| Column I | Column II | ||
| A. | Diatoms | a. | Protein-rich layer of pellicle |
| B. | Dinoflagellates | b. | Cell wall embedded with silica |
| C. | Euglenoids | c. | Spores with true walls |
| D. | Slime moulds | d. | Cellulose plates in the cell wall |

All the following statements regarding Basidiomycetes are correct except:
| 1. | The mycelium is branched and septate |
| 2. | Asexual spores and vegetative reproduction are generally not found |
| 3. | Sex organs are absent |
| 4. | Basidiospores are exogenously produced on the basidium |
