Solution

The correct option is D Flagella are absent
  • The red algae usually reproduce vegetatively by fragmentation.
  • They reproduce asexually by non-motile spores like monospores and sexually by non-motile gametes. Hence, Flagella are absent in Rhodophyceae.
  • So, the correct answer is "Flagella are absent'.
