I: | the male and the female gametophytes do not have an independent free-living existence. |
II: | vascular tissues [xylem and phloem] are present. |
Statement I: | Systematics takes into account evolutionary relationships between organisms. |
Statement II: | Taxonomy takes into account only some easily observable external characters of organisms. |
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 |

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). |

Statement I: | Green algae are usually grass green due to the dominance of pigments chlorophyll a and b. |
Statement II: | Red algae vary in colour from olive green to various shades of brown depending upon the amount of fucoxanthin. |
