Sperms of both Funaria and Pteris were released together near the archegonia of Pteris. Only its sperms enter the archegonia as
-
- Pteris archegonia repel Funaria sperms
- Funaria sperms get killed by Pteris sperms
- Funaria sperms are less mobile
- Pteris archegonia release chemical to attract its sperms
Correct Option: D
Archegonia of a particular species recognises antherozoids (sperms) of the same species through release of chemical. In Pteris, archegonia produces malic acid which attracts sperms of Pteris only for fertilization.
