Which one of the following is wrong about Chara?
A Upper oogonium and lower round antheridium
B Globule and nucule present on the same plant
C Upper antheridium and lower oogonium
D Globule is male reproductive structure

Detailed Solution

In Chara the female organ (oogonium or nucule) lies above and the male organ (antheridium or globule) lies below it, both on the same plant.
So 'upper antheridium and lower oogonium' is wrong.
