Step-by-step solution
Asexual reproduction in most brown algae is by biflagellate zoospores that are pear-shaped and have two unequal laterally attached flagella. Sexual reproduction may be isogamous, anigamous or oogamous. Union of gametes may take place in water or within the oogonium. The gametes are pyriform (pear-shaped) and bear two laterally attached flagella
