The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "Choose the correct statement," we will analyze each option provided and determine which one is accurate based on biological classification principles. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Analyze Option 1:** - Statement: "All the members of phycomycetes are facultative parasites on plants." - Analysis: Phycomycetes (now often referred to as Zygomycetes) primarily include obligate parasites, not facultative ones. Therefore, this statement is incorrect. 2. **Analyze Option 2:** - Statement: "The fusion of protoplasm between two motile and non-motile gametes is called plasmogamy." - Analysis: Plasmogamy is indeed the fusion of the cytoplasm of two gametes, which can be either motile or non-motile. This statement is correct. 3. **Analyze Option 3:** - Statement: "Kingdom Plantae includes all eukaryotic chlorophyll-containing organisms and non-chlorophyll organisms and are called plants." - Analysis: Kingdom Plantae primarily includes eukaryotic organisms that contain chlorophyll. Non-chlorophyll organisms are not classified under Plantae. Thus, this statement is incorrect. 4. **Analyze Option 4:** - Statement: "Typhoderma belongs to basidomycetes." - Analysis: Typhoderma is not classified under Basidiomycetes; it belongs to Deuteromycetes (also known as Fungi Imperfecti). Therefore, this statement is incorrect. ### Conclusion: The only correct statement among the provided options is **Option 2**: "The fusion of protoplasm between two motile and non-motile gametes is called plasmogamy."
