Hints And Solutions


1. b.
Spirogyra is autotrophic, unbranched filamentous algae which is slippery due to mucilagenous covering (pectin) 
2. c.Victoria  3.a  4.d  5. b 6. c 7.b.   8.a    9.b   10. a  11. a    12. a   13.a
14.a
Permeable: Cellulose and lignified cell wall
Impermeable: Cutinized and suberized cell wall
Semi permeable: Parchment membrane
Selectively permeable: Tonoplast and cell membrane of different organelles

15.b

16.a

17.c
Lichen is symbiotic association between fungi and algae
        Algal part(phycobiont): Mostly BGA , Green algae
        Fungal part(Mycobiont): Mostly Ascomycetes , Basidiomycetes
                      So prefer ascomycetes


19.a
