During the formation of primary plant body, dermal tissue, ground tissue and vascular tissue are produced by:
1. Primary meristems
2. Secondary meristems
3. Both primary and secondary meristems
4. Neither primary nor secondary meristems
Regarding the guard cells:
| 1. | walls away from the stomatal pores are thin and those towards the stomatal pores are thick |
| 2. | walls away from the stomatal pores are thick and those towards the stomatal pores are thin |
| 3. | chloroplasts are mostly absent |
| 4. | play no role in the regulation of opening and closing of stomata |
A simple plant tissue is characterized by:
1. continued cell division
2. presence of only living cells
3. cells with chloroplasts
4. presence of only one type of cells
All the following statements regarding the anatomy of a typical dicotyledonous root are correct except:
| 1. | Many cells of the epiblema protrude in the form of unicellular root hairs. |
| 2. | The innermost layer of the cortex is called as the endodermis. |
| 3. | Pericycle is made up of collenchymatous cells. |
| 4. | Parenchymatous conjunctive tissue lies between the xylem and phloem. |
All the following regarding parenchyma tissue in plants are correct except:
1. Cells are generally isodiametric
2. Cell walls are generally thick
3. Cell walls are made of cellulose
4. They perform photosynthesis, storage and secretion
