- Select the incorrect statement regarding heterocyst.
(a) Heterocyst is a large sized thin walled cell
occurring only at terminal position in filamentous
cyanobacteria.
(b) The wall of heterocyst is impermeable to oxygen but
permeable to nitrogen.

(c) heterotrophic food habit and chloroplast presence
(d) none of the above.
15. Bryophytes comprise of
(a) dominant phase of gametophyte which produces
spores

True or False - Classification based on evolutionary relationships of
organisms is called phylogenetic system of classification. - An inert virus can be crystallised and stored indefinitely.
- The viral genome gets integrated with host DNA in lytic
phase of reproductive cycle of virulent phages. - The outer membrane of bacterial cell has hydrophilic
channels of b-barrel proteins called porins. - Bacteria perform anoxygenic photosynthesis whereas
cyanobacteria perform oxygenic photosynthesis. - Zygote is the only diploid structure in organisms having life
cycle with gametic meiosis. - Euglenoids store their carbohydrates as paramylon,
scattered throughout the cytoplasm. - The brown colour of brown algae is due to the presence of
large amount of fucoxanthin. - In several cases, fungal hyphae get closely packed and
lose their individuality to form a compact tissue called
pseudoparenchyma. - Deuteromycetes are also called imperfect fungi because
they show autrotophic mode of nutrition.
