Question

True or false

The fungal component of a lichen thallus is most often a basidiomycete.
In eucarpic thallus, the entire thallus is composed mainly of sporangia.
The tree fern, Cyathea is a eusporangiate fern.
The trophophyll vegetative frond has the same morphology and function as the sporophyll frond.
Tricolpate pollen morphology is a synapomorphy in all dicots.
Hyphal tissue comprise the medulla layer of a lichen thallus.
The Phylum Ascomycota is a monophyletic group.
Homosporous condition in the sporophyte gives rise to bisexual gametophyte.
The Phylum Basidiomycota is a paraphyletic group.
In polycentric thalli, a single zoospore will give rise to several rhizoids.
Heterothallic mycelia require two different, but compatible, mycelia to reproduce sexually.
Having a single cotyledon is a synapomorphy shared by all monocots.
The xylem vessel is considered an apomorphic feature in the monocots and eudicots.
The nuclear fusion of the dikaryotic hyphae is termed as plasmogamy.
In Allomyces, the meiospores will give rise to the gametangia.

Features Features The presence of a single cotyledon in the seedling is the most common way to identify monocot plants. Veins that run parallel to the length of the leaves and flower sections that are arranged in a three or six-fold symmetry are some of the anatomical characteristics shared by monocots. Monocots have very little true woody tissue and an adventitious root system. They lack a typical cambium and have scattered vascular bundles.
