Solution

The correct option is B

Homogametes - Fucus


Fucus (a brown alga) and humans are examples of organisms that produce heterogametes. The male gamete here is called antherozoid or sperm and female gamete is called egg or ovum. Heterogametes are morphologically distinct from each other and can be easily distinguished, unlike the homogametes, which are similar to each other in form and structure.
