Question

Identify ‘A’ and ‘B’ and correct statements regarding them.

• A. A- conidia- these are non- motile exogenous asexual reproductive structures seen in Chlamydomonas. B- gemmules- these are endogenous buds seen in sponges.
• B. A- zoospores- these are microscopic and motile asexual reproductive structures seen in sponges. B- buds- these are exogenous buds seen in Penicillium.
• C. A- zoospores- these are microscopic and motile asexual reproductive structures seen in Chlamydomonas B- conidia- these are non-motile exogenous asexual reproductive structures seen in Penicillium.
• D. A- conidia- these are non- motile exogenous asexual reproductive structures seen in Penicillium. B- zoospores- these are microscopic and motile asexual reproductive structures seen in Chlamydomonas

Answer 1

The correct option is C A- zoospores- these are microscopic and motile asexual reproductive structures seen in Chlamydomonas B- conidia- these are non-motile exogenous asexual reproductive structures seen in Penicillium.

A- zoospores- these are microscopic and motile asexual reproductive structures seen in Chlamydomonas
B- conidia- these are non-motile exogenous asexual reproductive structures seen in Penicillium.
Members of kingdom fungi and simple plants such as algae reproduce through special asexual reproductive structures called spores.

Chlamydomonas reproduce by structures called zoospores that are usually microscopic motile structures.

Penicillium reproduce by asexual reproductive structures called conidiospores which are exogenous and non-motile structures.

Hydra also reproduce by budding. In Hydra the bud is exogenous and grows externally on the parent body. Gemmules are the endogenous buds that are seen in sponges.
