A) bilateral symmetry
B) sponges
C) comb jellies
D) a and b
E) a and c
Explanation / Answer
1. It will be D, i.e they are absorptive heterotrophs, because plants can produce their own food which is their very important characteristic, that they do not have any haploid stage except for the gametes, is not so important and they have a cell wall, though it is different from plant cell wall.
2. It will be A i.e they do not have photosyntheyic pigments. The same reason as the above question may appliy here also. Most fungi are multicellular and not unicellular..
3 A lichen is a composite organism that arises from algae or cyanobacteria living among filaments of multiple fungi, in a symbiotic relationship. The combined lichen has properties different from those of its component organisms. Lichens come in many colours, sizes, and forms. The properties are sometimes plant-like, but lichens are not plants. Lichens may have tiny, leafless branches (fruticose), flat leaf-like structures (foliose), flakes that lie on the surface like peeling paint (crustose),[or other growth forms. So, zygosporangia , basidiocarps, Soredia and Asci which are different parts of Fungi and so could be a part of lichen but chlorophyta usually does not go into a symbiotic relationship. So, the answer would be A.
4 A. metamorphosis is conversiom of larva into sexually mature adult
5 D Muscles are formed from mesoderm amd not ectoderm.
6. E. Platyhelminthes are usually unsegmented.
