Seed dormancy can be due to the presence of chemical inhibitors which include all the following except:
1. abscisic acids
2. phenolic acids
3. para-ascorbic acid
4. gibberellic acid
Which PGR stimulates the closure of stomata and increases the tolerance of plants to various kinds of stresses?
1. | Abscisic acid | 2. | Ethylene |
3. | Auxins | 4. | Cytokinins |
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) |

1. | Only I and II are correct |
2. | Only I and III are correct |
3. | Only II and III are correct |
4. | I, II and III are correct |
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. |
1. | Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect |
