    E)            If the assertion is false but reason is true

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

               In certain true fungi e.g., Ascomycetes and Basidiomycetes, during certain stages of the life history, the hyphae become organised into a loosely or compactly woven mass, called plectenchyma. These are of two types-prosenchyma and pseudoparenchyma. (i)        Prosenchyma-It is a loosely wooven tissue consisting of distinguishable long hyphae. (ii)       Pseudoparenchyma ? The hyphae here are short celled and compactly arranged.
