Q2 / 180 · NEET 2015 (Phase 2) · Botany
Pick up the wrong statement.
- AProtista have photosynthetic and heterotrophic modes of nutrition
- BSome fungi are edible
- Correct answerCNuclear membrane is present in Monera
- DCell wall is absent in Animalia
Solution
The members of kingdom-Monera are prokaryotes. True nucleus is absent in a prokaryotic cell. Prokaryotes are unicellular organisms that lack organelles or other internal membrane-bound structures. Therefore, they do not have a nucleus, but, instead, generally have a single chromosome: a piece of circular, double stranded DNA located in an area of the cell called the nucleoid.
Euglena perform photosynthesis in the presence of light, while they show heterotrophic nutrition in the absence of light. Mushrooms are edible fungus. Animals do not have any cell wall.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
