Statement I: | A is anther and collectively anthers form the androecium of the flower. |
Statement II: | B is the site for landing of pollens during pollination, C is style, and D after fertilisation becomes a fruit. |
1. | Statement I is correct, Statement II is correct |
2. | Statement I is incorrect, Statement II is correct |
3. | Statement I is correct, Statement II is incorrect |
4. | Statement I is incorrect, Statement II is incorrect |

Consider the following statements regarding floral primordium:
I: | It is formed at the shoot apical meristem |
II: | The development of flowers is dependent on genetics, PGR, and environmental conditions. |
Of the two statements:
1. | Only I is correct |
2. | Only II is correct |
3. | Both I and II are correct |
4. | Both I and II are incorrect. |
In an angiosperm, the structure that develops and becomes a pollen sac is called:
1. | Megasporophyll | 2. | Megasporangium |
3. | Microsporangium | 4. | Microsporophyll |
A typical angiosperm anther is:
1. Bilobed and polythecous
2. Unilobed and monothecous
3. Multilobed and monothecous
4. Bilobed and dithecous
Statement I: | The bilobed nature of an anther is very distinct in the given section. |
Statement II: | The anther is a two-sided [bigonal] structure consisting of four microsporangia located at the corners, two in each lobe. |
1. | Statement I is correct, Statement II is correct. |
2. | Statement I is incorrect, Statement II is correct. |
3. | Statement I is correct, Statement II is incorrect. |
4. | Statement I is incorrect, Statement II is incorrect. |
The layers in the walls of the microsporangium that helps in the dehiscence of anther to release the pollen include:
I: | Epidermis |
II: | Endothecium |
III: | Middle layers |
IV: | Tapetum |
1. | I and II only | 2. | I, II, and III only |
3. | II and III only | 4. | I, II, III, and IV |
Tapetum:
1. | is the outermost layer in the wall of microsporangium |
2. | helps in the protection of the pollen grains |
3. | helps in dehiscence of anther |
4. | has cells that generally have more than one nucleus |
A | B | C | D | |
1. | Epidermis | Endothecium | Middle layers | Tapetum |
2. | Epithelium | Endothelium | Middle layers | Tapetum |
3. | Endothecium | Epidermis | Tapetum | Middle layers |
4. | Epithelium | Endothelium | Tapetum | Middle layers |
Statement I: | This process is coordinated precisely with pollen differentiation, floral development, and flower opening. |
Statement II: | Anther dehiscence is the final function of the anther that causes the release of pollen grains. |
1. | Both Statement I and Statement II are True and Statement II is the correct explanation of Statement I. |
2. | Both Statement I and Statement II are True but Statement II is not the correct explanation of Statement I. |
3. | Statement I is True but Statement II is False. |
4. | Statement I is False but Statement II is True. |
