(D) In algae,the zygote does not undergo immediate mitosis to form an embryo. Instead,the zygote often undergoes meiosis to produce haploid spores. Therefore,the formation of an embryo from the zygote is a characteristic feature of bryophytes and pteridophytes,not algae. Thus,Assertion $(A)$ is false.Algae exhibit various modes of sexual reproduction,including isogamy,anisogamy,and oogamy. Conjugation is a specific type of sexual reproduction observed in certain algae like $Spirogyra$. Thus,Reason $(R)$ is true.
