The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "Identify the incorrect statement," we will analyze each of the provided statements one by one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Analyze the First Statement**: - The statement is: "In asexual reproduction, the offsprings produced are morphologically and genetically identical to parent." - **Evaluation**: This statement is correct. In asexual reproduction, offspring are indeed genetically and morphologically identical to the parent because there is no exchange of genetic material. **Hint**: Remember that asexual reproduction involves a single parent, leading to identical offspring. 2. **Analyze the Second Statement**: - The statement is: "Zoospores are the sexual reproductive structures." - **Evaluation**: This statement is incorrect. Zoospores are actually asexual reproductive structures that are motile and use flagella for movement. **Hint**: Distinguish between sexual and asexual reproduction; zoospores belong to the latter. 3. **Analyze the Third Statement**: - The statement is: "In asexual reproduction, a single parent produces offspring with or formation of gametes." - **Evaluation**: This statement is also correct. Asexual reproduction does not involve the formation of gametes; it typically involves processes like binary fission, budding, or fragmentation. **Hint**: Asexual reproduction does not require gametes; it involves direct offspring production from one parent. 4. **Analyze the Fourth Statement**: - The statement is: "Conidia are the asexual structures." - **Evaluation**: This statement is correct. Conidia are indeed a type of asexual reproductive structure found in fungi. **Hint**: Conidia are a form of asexual reproduction in certain organisms, particularly fungi. ### Conclusion: After evaluating all the statements, the incorrect statement is the second one: "Zoospores are the sexual reproductive structures." ### Final Answer: The incorrect statement is **Option 2**: "Zoospores are the sexual reproductive structures."
