Kingdom Plantae includes

  1. algae and bryophytes

  2. pteridophytes and gymnosperms

  3. angiosperms

  4. all of these


Correct Option: D
Explanation:
The Plant Kingdom incorporates Algae, Bryophytes, Pteridophytes, Gymnosperms, and Angiosperms. Bryophytes are creatures of land and water of plant kingdom. 
So, the correct option is 'all of these'.

Ferns can be classified as

  1. Bryophyta

  2. Thallophyta

  3. Pteridophyta

  4. None of the above


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

A fern is any one of a group of about 20,000 species of plants classified in the phylum or division Pteridophyta, also known as Filicophyta.

Algae mostly belongs to 

  1. Thallophyta

  2. Bryophyta

  3. Pteridophyta

  4. Gymnosperm


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Anwer is A.

Plants that do not have well-differentiated body design are Thallophyta . They are commonly called algae.
Algae are chlorophyll-bearing, simple, thalloid, autotrophic and largely aquatic (both fresh water and marine) organisms.

Neem is classified under

  1. Thallophyta

  2. Bryophyta

  3. Pteridophyta

  4. Angiosperms


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

The answer is D. Angiosperms

Azadirachta indica, commonly known as neem, is a tree in the mahogany family Meliaceae. It is mostly used for medicinal purposes. 

Laminaria is classified as 

  1. Thallophyta

  2. Bryophyta

  3. Pteridophyta

  4. None of the above


Correct Option: A

Choose the correct answers from the alternatives given.
Which of the following kingdoms contains primarily multicellular, larger-celled, photosynthetic    organisms?

  1. Animalia

  2. Plantae

  3. Archaea

  4. Fungi


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Kingdom Plantae includes all eukaryotic chlorophyllous autotrophic organisms that do photosynthesis and are multicellular with large sized cells.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Plantae'.

Which of the following statement is false?

  1. Biological names are generally written in Latin and printed in italics.

  2. Both the words in biological name when handwritten are jointly underlined.

  3. In binomial system given by Linnaeus is being practised by biologists all over the world.

  4. In binomial system, first component a genus and second word is specific epithet.


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Option (B) is false.

Both the words in biological name is written in italics or underlined to denote a species that is to be denoted but not jointly underlined.

  1. Africa

  2. America

  3. Australia

  4. India


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The origin of primitive man or early hominid is believed to be have happened in southwestern Africa. Several theories propose that early homo sapiens evolved in Africa, and later migrated in other parts of the world.

The correct answer is A.

In structure of an ecosystem, composition of biological communities include:

  1. Rate of production

  2. Species population, biomass, distribution

  3. Rate of temperature change

  4. Light and temperatue


Correct Option: B

Which statement best explains why invertebrates regenerate lost tissue more readily than most vertebrates do? 

  1. Invertebrates contain specialized cells that produce the hormones necessary for this process.

  2. Invertebrate cells exhibit a higher degree of uncontrolled cell division than vertebrate cells do.

  3. Invertebrate animals reproduce asexually, but vertebrate animals reproduce sexually.

  4. Invertebrate animals have more undifferentiated cells than vertebrate animals have.


Correct Option: D
Explanation:
Invertebrate animals have more undifferentiated cells than vertebrate animals have, which explains that they regenerate lost tissue more readily than most vertebrates. Invertebrates, animals without a backbone, such as an earthworm, are simpler than vertebrates, such as a human. Therefore, their cells are not as complex and they may be able to regenerate or grow lost body parts easier than a more complex animal. 
Therefore, the correct answer is option D.
