The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze each of the statements provided and determine their correctness. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Statement (a)**: "In algae and fungi, both gametes are mostly non-motile." - **Analysis**: This statement is incorrect. In many algae, gametes can be motile (e.g., in green algae like Chlamydomonas). In fungi, while some gametes are non-motile, many species produce motile gametes as well. Therefore, this statement is false. 2. **Statement (b)**: "In most of the organisms, fertilization is external." - **Analysis**: This statement is also incorrect. While many aquatic organisms (like fish and amphibians) do exhibit external fertilization, many terrestrial organisms (including most mammals) have internal fertilization. Thus, it cannot be said that "most" organisms have external fertilization. Therefore, this statement is false. 3. **Statement (c)**: "In most of the higher organisms, female gamete is stationary." - **Analysis**: This statement is correct. In higher organisms, particularly in animals, the female gamete (ovum) is typically larger and non-motile, while the male gamete (sperm) is motile. Therefore, this statement is true. ### Conclusion: After analyzing all three statements, we find that: - Statement (a) is incorrect. - Statement (b) is incorrect. - Statement (c) is correct. Thus, the correct answer is that only statement (c) is correct. ### Final Answer: The correct option is: **Only C is correct.** ---
