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. |
Long filamentous threads protruding at the end of a young cob of maize are:
1. | anthers | 2. | styles |
3. | ovaries | 4. | hairs |
The plant parts which consist of two generations, one within the other, are:
(a) Pollen grains inside the anther
(b) Germinated pollen grain with two male gametes
(c) Seed inside the fruit
(d) Embryo sac inside the ovule
1. | (a), (b), and (c) | 2. | (c) and (d) |
3. | (a) and (d) | 4. | (a) only |
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 |
