Which of the following statements is correct?
A
Fusion of two cells is called Karyogamy.
B
Fusion of protoplasms between two motile on
non-motile gametes is called plasmogamy.
C
Organisms that depend on living plants are
called saprophytes.
D
Some of the organisms can fix atmospheric
nitrogen in specialized cells called sheath cells.
Show explanation
Explanation: Option 2 is correct. Plasmogamy means the fusion of cytoplasm (protoplasm) of two gametes, which may be motile or non-motile. Karyogamy (not option 1) is the fusion of the nuclei. Option 3 is incorrect because saprophytes feed on dead organic matter, whereas organisms that depend on living plants are parasites. Option 4 is incorrect because nitrogen fixation in cyanobacteria occurs in specialized cells called heterocysts, not sheath cells.
🧠 Did You Know? In fungi, plasmogamy often occurs first, followed by karyogamy to form a diploid nucleus.
💡 NCERT Memory Line: Plasmogamy = fusion of cytoplasm; Karyogamy = fusion of nuclei.
