Read the following statements and choose the correct option: 1. Zoospores are non-flagellated and non-motile and on germination gives rise to new plants. 2. The gametes in sexual reproduction can be flagellated and similar in size as in Chlamydomonas 3. The gametes could also be non-flagellated and non-motile but similar in size as in Spirogyra 4. Fusion of two gametes dissimilar in size, as in species of Fucus is te

Step-by-step solution

Asexual reproduction is by the production of different types of spores, the most common being the zoospores. They are flagellated and on germination gives rise to new plants. Sexual reproduction takes place through fusion of two gametes. These gametes can be flagellated and similar in size as in Chlamydomonas or non-flagellated and non-motile but similar in size as in Spirogyra. Fusion between one large, nonmotile (static) female gamete and a smaller, motile male gamete is termed oogamous, e.g., Volvox, Fucus.
