Leaf like photosynthetic organ is associated with algal group
| 1. | Showing only oogamous reproduction |
| 2. | Having predominance of r-phycoerythrin |
| 3. | Where members may reach a height of 100 metres |
| 4. | Usually having grass-green colour |
Ovules present on loose megasporophylls, unbranched stem and dicotyledonous condition are features related to
| 1. | Cycas | 2. | Pinus |

The leaves of gymnosperms
| 1. | Are not adapted to withstand extremes of temperature |
| 2. | May be simple or compound |
| 3. | Are needle shaped in all members |
| 4. | Lack transfusion tissue |
In heterosporous members of the pteridophyta
| 1. | Development of embryo takes place within the female gametophyte |
| 2. | Zygote produces a multicellular and undifferentiated sporophyte |
| 3. | Gametophyte is monoecious |

Members of red algae are mostly marine, occurring both at surface water and at great depths in oceans except for a few fresh water species. These algae usually
| 1. | Reproduce asexually by motile spores |
| 2. | Show oogamous reproduction by motile gametes |
| 3. | Lack of chlorophyll-a and fucoxanthin |
| 4. | Reproduce vegetatively by fragmentation |

| a. | Pollen grains are carried by air currents |
| b. | Pollen tube carries the male gametes to archegonia |
| c. | Ovules are exposed before fertilization but get covered after fertilization |
| d. | They produce same type of spores |
