| I: | In diatoms, the cell walls form two thin overlapping shells which fit together as in a soap box |
| II: | The walls are embedded with silica and thus are indestructible |
| III: | The fossilized diatoms are called diatomaceous earth |
| IV: | Diatoms are not the main producers in the oceans |
| V: | Diatomaceous earth is used in polishing, filtration of oil and syrups |
| Column -I | Column-II |
| A. Plasmodium | (i) Diatoms |
| B. Mixotrophic nutrition | (ii) Euglenoids |
| C. Red tide | (iii) Dinoflagellates |
| D. Oceanic chief producers | (iv) Slime moulds |
| I: | Their body consists of long, slender thread-like structures called hyphae |
| II: | The network of hyphae is called mycelium |
| III: | Hyphae may be continuous tubes filled with multinucleated cytoplasm, these hyphae are coenocytic |
| IV: | In many cases hyphae have septate or cross walls |
| V: | The cell wall of fungi are composed by chitin and polysaccharides |
| i. | These are commonly called sac fungi |
| ii. | These are mostly multicellular |
| iii. | They are saprotrophic, decomposers, parasitic or coprophilous |
| iv. | Their mycelium is aseptate |
| v. | Conidia produced by them are endogenous |
| I: | Sex organs are commonly present |
| II: | Plasmogamy is brought about by the fusion of two vegetative or somatic cells of different strains or genotypes |
| III: | The dikaryotic structure may give rise to the basidium |
| IV: | Karyogamy and Meiosis take place in the basidium producing four ascospores |
| V: | The basidiospores are exogenously produced on the basidium |
