Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Equisetum- Pteridophytes-free living gametophyte-Prothallus.
Riccia- It is liverwort in which simplest sporophyte consists of capsule only while polytrichum is moss in which sporphyte consists of foot seta and capsule.
Volvox- oogamy is present.
Slime moulds- Spores bear cell wall.

Questions Asked in NEET exam
- Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.
Assertion A : The potential (V) at any axial point, at 2 m distance(r) from the centre of the dipole of dipole moment vector \(\vec{P}\) of magnitude, 4 × 10-6 C m, is ± 9 × 103 V.
(Take \(\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}=9\times10^9\) SI units)
Reason R : \(V=±\frac{2P}{4\pi \epsilon_0r^2}\), where r is the distance of any axial point, situated at 2 m from the centre of the dipole.

Concepts Used:
Pteridophytes
Pteridophytes are the first terrestrial vascular plants. Carolus Linnaeus classified them under the group cryptogamae. Pteridophytes occupy a transitional position between bryophytes and spermatophytes.
For Example, Silver fern, Equisetum, Selaginella
The general characteristics of Pteridophytes are:
- They are seedless.
- They are multicellular.
- They reproduce through spores.
- They are independent and free-living organisms.
- They have a well-differentiated plant body into root, stem and leaves.
