The correct Answer is:
To determine which statement is incorrect, we will analyze each option provided in the question step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze Statement A - **Statement A**: "Archegonia are found in Bryophyta, Pteridophyta, and Gymnosperms." - **Analysis**: This statement is true. Archegonia are indeed the female reproductive structures found in all three groups: Bryophyta (mosses), Pteridophyta (ferns), and Gymnosperms (conifers). ### Step 2: Analyze Statement B - **Statement B**: "Mucor has biflagellate zoospores." - **Analysis**: This statement is false. Mucor, which belongs to the kingdom Fungi and the division Zygomycetes, produces non-motile, non-flagellated zygospores. Therefore, this statement is incorrect. ### Step 3: Analyze Statement C - **Statement C**: "Haploid endosperm is a typical feature of gymnosperms." - **Analysis**: This statement is true. In gymnosperms, the endosperm is haploid and serves as a nutrient source for the developing embryo, which is a typical characteristic of these plants. ### Step 4: Analyze Statement D - **Statement D**: "Brown algae have chlorophyll A, C, and fucoxanthin." - **Analysis**: This statement is also true. Brown algae contain chlorophyll A and C, along with the pigment fucoxanthin, which gives them their characteristic brown color. ### Conclusion After analyzing all the statements, we find that the incorrect statement is **Statement B**: "Mucor has biflagellate zoospores." ### Final Answer - The wrong statement is **B**. ---
