The correct Answer is:
To analyze the given statements, we will evaluate each statement separately and determine their correctness. ### Step 1: Evaluate Statement 1 **Statement 1:** "Zoospores are microscopic motile spores formed inside sporangia." - **Definition of Zoospores:** Zoospores are indeed microscopic spores that are capable of movement (motile) and are produced in a structure known as a sporangium. - **Formation:** They are typically found in certain algae, fungi, and protists, where they are formed within sporangia. - **Conclusion for Statement 1:** This statement is **true**. ### Step 2: Evaluate Statement 2 **Statement 2:** "Conidia are non-flagellated motile spores formed over conidiophore." - **Definition of Conidia:** Conidia are asexual spores that are produced on specialized structures called conidiophores. - **Motility:** Conidia are **non-flagellated**, meaning they do not have flagella and therefore cannot swim. They are dispersed by air or water currents, but they do not move actively like zoospores. - **Conclusion for Statement 2:** This statement is **true**. ### Final Conclusion Both statements are correct: - Statement 1 is true regarding zoospores being microscopic and motile, formed inside sporangia. - Statement 2 is true regarding conidia being non-flagellated and formed over conidiophores. Thus, the answer is that both statements are correct. ### Answer: Both statements are true (Option A). ---
