Transfer of pollens from the anther to the stigma of the same flower is called:
1. | Autogamy | 2. | Geitonogamy |
3. | Xenogamy | 4. | Cleistogamy |
Choose the correct statement from the following:
1. | Cleistogamous flowers always exhibit autogamy |
2. | Chasmogamous flowers always exhibit geitonogamy |
3. | Cleistogamous flowers exhibit both autogamy and geitonogamy |
4. | Chasmogamous flowers never exhibit autogamy |
Chasmocleistogamy [Amphicarpy] is not seen in:
1. | Viola [Common pansy] | 2. | Oxalis |
3. | Pisum sativum | 4. | Commelina |
Geitonogamy is:
1. | Functionally cross–pollination but genetically autogamy |
2. | Functionally autogamy but genetically cross-pollination |
3. | Functionally and genetically autogamy |
4. | Functionally and genetically cross-pollination |
The only type of pollination which during pollination brings a genetically different type of pollen grains to the stigma is:
1. | Chasmogamy | 2. | Cleistogamy |
3. | Geitonogamy | 4. | Xenogamy |
Statement I: | Cleistogamous flowers have an advantage and a disadvantage over chasmogamous flowers. |
Statement II: | Seed set is assured even in the absence of pollinators but the amount of genetic variations is less in cleistogamous flowers when compared to the chasmogamous flowers. |
1. | Statement I is correct; Statement II is correct but Statement II does not explain Statement I. |
2. | Statement I is correct; Statement II is correct and Statement II explains Statement I. |
3. | Statement I is correct but Statement II is not correct. |
4. | Both Statement I and Statement II are not correct. |
Majority of plants:
1. | Use abiotic agents for pollination |
2. | Use biotic agents for pollination |
3. | Do not use any agent for pollination |
4. | Use both abiotic and biotic agents for pollination. |
Wind-pollinated flowers are characterized by the following, except:
1. | Light and non-sticky pollen grains |
2. | Well-exposed stamens |
3. | Many ovules in each ovary |
4. | Large, often-feathery stigma |
1. | Water | 2. | Wind |
3. | Bees | 4. | Bats |
Which of the following is/are a marine plant pollinated by water?
1. | Vallisneria | 2. | Hydrilla |
3. | Zostera | 4. | Both 1 and 2 |
