Statement I: | Gymnosperms lack albuminous cells and sieve cells. |
Statement II: | Gymnosperms have sieve tubes and companion cells. |
Assertion (A): | Vessels are particularly advantageous in environments where rapid water transport is needed, such as in tall trees or in plants growing in warm, sunny environments. |
Reason (R): | Tracheids are less efficient in conducting water due to their smaller diameter and the absence of large openings (perforations) at their ends. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A) |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not correctly explain (A) |
3. | (A) is True, (R) is False |
4. | (A) is False, (R) is True |
Assertion (A): | Xylem and phloem are not called complex tissues in a plant body. |
Reason (R): | They are composed of a single type of cell with similar structures and functions. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) does not correctly explain (A). |
3. | (A) is True; (R) is False |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are False |

1. | They have thin walls and are living at maturity. |
2. | They are primarily involved in storage of nutrients. |
3. | They have thick, lignified secondary walls and are usually dead at maturity. |
4. | They are large, vacuolated, and specialized for conduction. |
Statement I: | Parenchyma cells are loosely packed and have large intercellular spaces. |
Statement II: | Collenchyma cells are thin-walled and primarily serve to transport nutrients. |
1. | Only Statement I is correct. |
2. | Only Statement II is correct. |
3. | Both Statement I and Statement II are correct. |
4. | Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect |
Statement I: | In grasses, certain adaxial epidermal cells along the veins modify themselves into large, empty, colourless bulliform cells. |
Statement II: | When the bulliform cells in the leaves have absorbed water and are turgid, the leaf surface is exposed. |
