The bryophytes are also called as the amphibians of plants kingdom mainly because:
| 1. | they respire through the moist epidermis |
| 2. | they depend on water for sexual reproduction |
| 3. | they require more water than most plants |
| 4. | they lack true roots |
| 1. | Presence of flowers |
| 2. | Production of seeds |
| 3. | Dependence on water for fertilization |
| 4. | Presence of vascular tissues |
| I: | are contained in capsule |
| II: | undergo meiosis |

| 1. | Pteridophytes | 2. | Gymnosperms |
| 3. | Monocots | 4. | Bryophytes |
| 1. | The sex organs are multicellular. |
| 2. | The female sex organ called archegonium is flask-shaped and produces a single egg. |
| 3. | They produce biflagellate antherozoids. |
| 4. | Zygotes undergo reduction division immediately. |
Vegetative reproduction in mosses is by:
| 1. | Fragmentation and budding in secondary protonema |
| 2. | Only budding in secondary protonema |
| 3. | Adventitious roots and budding in secondary protonema |
| 4. | Fragmentation and budding in sporophyte |
| Assertion (A): | Mosses reduce the impact of falling rain and prevent soil erosion. |
| Reason (R): | Mosses form dense mats on the soil. |
| 1. | (A) is True and (R) is False. |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 3. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
| 4. | (A) is False and (R) is True. |
In a moss, the sporophyte
| 1. | Manufactures food for itself, as well as for the gametophyte |
| 2. | Arises from a spore produced from gametophyte |
| 3. | Is partially parasitic on the gametophyte |
| 4. | Produces gametes that give rise to the gametophyte |
