(c) Chlamydomonas  (III) Conidia  
(d) Hydra  (IV) Buds

 

Options:

a-II, b-III, c-IV, d-I.

a-II, b-IV, c-I, d-III. 

a-III, b-I, c-II, d-IV.

a-III, b-I, c-IV, d-II. 

Correct Answer:

a-III, b-I, c-II, d-IV.

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (3) – a-III, b-I, c-II, d-IV.

Column A (Organisms) Column B (Asexual reproductive structure)
(a) Penicillium (III) Conidia
(b) Sponge  (I) Gemmules
(c) Chlamydomonas  (II) Zoospores
(d) Hydra  (IV) Buds

Members of the Kingdom Fungi and simple plants such as algae reproduce through special asexual reproductive structures. The most common of these structures are zoospores that usually are microscopic motile structures. Other common asexual reproductive structures are conidia (Penicillium), buds (Hydra) and gemmules (sponge), Zoospores of Chlamydomonas.

Asexual reproductive structures: (a) Zoospores of Chlamydomonas; (b) Conidia of Penicillium; (c) Buds in Hydra ; (d) Gemmules in sponge
