The correct Answer is:
To solve the question of selecting the wrong statement, we will analyze each statement provided in the options one by one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Analyze Statement A: "Pseudopodia are locomotory and feeding structures in sporozoans."** - Pseudopodia are extensions of the protoplasm used for locomotion and feeding, primarily found in amoeboid protozoans (like Amoeba). - Sporozoans, such as Plasmodium, do not possess pseudopodia. They are non-motile in their adult forms and do not use pseudopodia for locomotion or feeding. - **Conclusion:** This statement is incorrect. 2. **Analyze Statement B: "Mushrooms belong to Basidiomycetes."** - Mushrooms are indeed classified under Basidiomycetes, which are also known as club fungi. - **Conclusion:** This statement is correct. 3. **Analyze Statement C: "Cell wall is present in members of fungi and plantae."** - Both fungi and plants have a cell wall. In fungi, the cell wall is primarily made of chitin, while in plants, it is made of cellulose. - **Conclusion:** This statement is correct. 4. **Analyze Statement D: "Mitochondria are powerhouse of the cell in all kingdoms except Monera."** - Mitochondria are known as the powerhouse of the cell because they are the site of ATP (energy) production. - They are present in eukaryotic cells (which include kingdoms such as Animalia, Plantae, and Fungi) but are absent in prokaryotic cells (Monera). - **Conclusion:** This statement is correct. ### Final Conclusion: - The only incorrect statement is **Statement A**: "Pseudopodia are locomotory and feeding structures in sporozoans."
