Correct answer
A. Only 3 is incorrect
Step-by-step solution
Cytotaxonomy is based on cytological information like chromosome number, structure, behaviour and Chemotaxonomy uses the chemical constituents of the plant to resolve confusions, are also used by taxonomists these days. Algae are chlorophyll-bearing, simple, thalloid, autotrophic and largely aquatic organisms. The form and size of algae is highly variable, ranging from colonial forms like Volvox and the filamentous forms like Ulothrix and Spirogyra
