4. | Flagellar number and insertions are 2, equal and apical. |
I: | the male and the female gametophytes do not have an independent free-living existence. |
II: | vascular tissues [xylem and phloem] are present. |
Assertion (A): | Water is required for transfer of male gametes to archegonium in ferns |

3. | It is also called sexual system as he chiefly used characters of stamens |
4. | It divides flowering and non-flowering plants into two categories |
Statement I: | Red algae do not occur in well-lighted regions close to the surface of water. |

1. | Statement I is correct; Statement II is correct |
2. | Statement I is correct; Statement II is incorrect |
3. | Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is correct |
4. | Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is incorrect |
I: | The male gametophyte of Marchantia |
II: | Hair like multicellular, branched true roots on the margins of the plant body. |
