The correct Answer is:
To determine which properties are not seen in Funaria, we will analyze each statement provided in the question. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Funaria**: Funaria is a genus of mosses, which are classified under bryophytes. Bryophytes are known for their unique life cycle and structure. 2. **Analyzing Statement I**: "They have unicellular rhizoids." - Funaria has multicellular and branched rhizoids, not unicellular rhizoids. Therefore, this statement is **false**. 3. **Analyzing Statement II**: "The gametophytic phase of the life cycle includes Protonema and leafy stage." - In Funaria, the gametophytic phase indeed includes both the protonema (which develops from spores) and the leafy stage (which develops from the protonema). Thus, this statement is **true**. 4. **Analyzing Statement III**: "Sporophyte consists of root, stem, and leaves." - In Funaria, the sporophyte does not have true roots, stems, or leaves. Instead, it consists of a foot, a seta (stalk), and a capsule. Therefore, this statement is **false**. 5. **Conclusion**: The properties that are not seen in Funaria are: - Statement I: They have unicellular rhizoids (False) - Statement III: Sporophyte consists of root, stem, and leaves (False) Thus, the properties that are not seen in Funaria are Statements I and III. ### Final Answer: The properties not seen in Funaria are I and III. ---
