Answer:
The false statement about the green algae is that these algae only contain spiral shaped chloroplasts.
Explanation:
Green algae have light absorbing green pigment chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b in the chloroplast and also have beta carotenoids and xanthophyll as the acessory pigments.Their chloroplasts are found in different shapes.The shapes may be spiral,reticulate,discoid,cupshaped or may be platlike. Spirogyra is one of the filamentous algae,which have spiral shaped chloroplasts and also have sub-cellular microcompartments, which is known as pyrenoids.
Hence,the false statement about the green algae is that these algae only contain spiral shaped chloroplasts.
