Plant Kingdom: NEET questions with solutions
This chapter tests the algal classes with their pigments and reserve food, bryophyte and pteridophyte life cycles, heterospory and the seed habit, and gymnosperm features. NEET marks are lost on which phase is dominant, on look-alike products (algin, agar, carrageen), and on assigning pigments or examples to the wrong class.
