Assertion(A): | Plant growth is intimately linked to the water status of the plant. |
Reason(R): | The plant cells grow in size by cell enlargement, which in turn requires water. |
1. | (A) is True but (R) is False |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A) |
3. | Both (A) and (R) are True and but (R) does not correctly explain (A) |
4. | (A) is False but (R) is True |
I: | Auxins are plant growth promoters |
II: | ABA is a plant growth inhibitor |
III: | Ethylene is largely an inhibitor of growth activities |
Statement I: | The phenomenon by which the undividing parenchyma cells start to divide mitotically during plant tissue culture is called as dedifferentiation. |
Statement II: | The ability of plants to follow different pathways in response to environment leading to formation of different kinds of structures is called plasticity. |
