Question

Choose the correct statements:
I. All organisms belonging to Kingdom plantae are eukaryotic
II. Mosses are grouped under Pteridophytes
III. All organisms belonging to Kingdom Plantae have well differentiated shoots, roots and leaves.

• A. Only I and III
• B. Only II
• C. Only II and III
• D. Only I

Answer 1

The correct option is D Only I

Eukaryotic, photosynthetic organisms belong to Kingdom plantae. Hence statement I is correct.

Mosses are grouped under Byrophytes. Hence statement II is incorrect.

Some groups of organisms such as algae and bryophytes have a thalloid plant body which is not differentiated into true roots, stems and leaves whileplants belonging to pteridophytes, gymnosperms and angiosperms are well differentiated into roots, stems and leaves. Hence statement III is incorrect.
