Answer: (A) Pseudopodia are locomotory and feeding structures in Sporozoans Solution: Pseudopodia are the feeding and locomotory structures of amoeboid protozoans (e.g., Amoeba), not Sporozoans, which instead have an infectious spore-like stage — so statement A is wrong.
- A.Pseudopodia are locomotory and feeding structures in Sporozoans✓
- B.Mushrooms belong to Basidiomycetes
- C.Cell wall is present in members of Fungi and Plantae
- D.Mitochondria are the powerhouse of the cell in all kingdoms except Monera
Correct Answer
(A) Pseudopodia are locomotory and feeding structures in Sporozoans
Solution & Explanation
Answer: (A) Pseudopodia are locomotory and feeding structures in Sporozoans Solution: Pseudopodia are the feeding and locomotory structures of amoeboid protozoans (e.g., Amoeba), not Sporozoans, which instead have an infectious spore-like stage — so statement A is wrong. Mushrooms are indeed Basidiomycetes, both Fungi and Plantae have cell walls, and Monera (prokaryotes) lack mitochondria, making the other three statements correct.
