Q. Select the wrong statement:
A) Isogametes are similar in structure, function and behaviour
B) Anisogametes differ either in structure, function or behaviour
C) In Oomycetes female gamete is smaller and motile, while male gamete is larger and non-motile
D) Chlamydomonas exhibits both isogamy and anisogamy and Fucus shows oogamy
Explanation
[Solution from source] Oomycetes are oogamous: the female gamete (egg) is large and non-motile while the male gamete is small, so the statement that the female gamete is smaller and motile is reversed and wrong. The definitions of isogametes and anisogametes are correct, and Chlamydomonas does show isogamy and anisogamy while Fucus is oogamous. Answer (3).
