I. | Exine is made up of sporopollenin |
II. | Generative cell is bigger than the vegetative cell |
III. | Generative cell divides meiotically to produce male gametes |
I: | Each anther develops four microsporangia |
II: | Each microspore mother cell undergoes meiosis and produces four haploid microspores |
III: | Each microspore gives rise to a male gametophyte |
1. | 50 | 2. | 100 |
3. | 200 | 4. | 400 |
I: | is a type of apomixis |
II: | produces embryos that are genetically identical to the parent plant |
I: | In castor and maize, autogamy is prevented but not geitonogamy |
II. | In papaya, both autogamy and geitonogamy are prevented |
1. | Both I and II | 2. | Only I |
3. | Only II | 4. | Neither I nor II |
1. | ovary is the enlarged apical portion of the pistil; the ovary contains ovules, which develop into seeds upon fertilization |
2. | ovary is the enlarged basal portion of the pistil; the ovary contains ovules, which develop into seeds upon fertilization |
3. | ovary is the enlarged basal portion of the pistil; the ovary contains ovules, which develop into fruits upon fertilization |
4. | ovary is the enlarged apical portion of the pistil; the ovary contains ovules, which develop into fruits upon fertilization |
What is the fate of the male gametes discharged in the synergid?
1. | One fuses with the egg and the other fuses with central cell nuclei |
2. | One fuses with the egg and the other(s) degenerate(s) in the synergid |
3. | All fuse with the egg |
4. | One fuses with the egg and the other(s) fuse(s) with a synergid nucleus |
Geitonogamy involves:
1. | Pollination of a flower by the pollen from another flower of the same plant. |
2. | Pollination of a flower by the pollen from another same flower. |
3. | Pollination of a flower by the pollen from a flower of another plant in the same population. |
4. | Pollination of a flower by the pollen from a flower of another plant belonging to a distant population. |
