At the root apex the cells of the meristematic region are not characterized by:-
1. Being rich in protoplasm
2. Abundant plasmodesmatal connections
3. A cell wall that is primary in nature
4. Having small inconspicuous nuclei
Growth can be measured in various ways. Which of these can be used as parameters to measure growth?
1. increase in cell number
2. increase in cell size
3. increase in length and weight
4. All of these
The growth of a root elongating at a constant rate will be represented by:
1. A only
2. B only
3. Both A and B
4. Neither A nor B
The typical growth curve in plants is:
Consider the following statements regarding growth in plants -
I: | Cell enlargement requires water. |
II: | Oxygen helps in releasing metabolic energy for growth activities. |
III: | Nutrients are required for synthesis of protoplasm and act as source of energy. |
Which of the above statements are true?
1. | I and II only | 2. | I and III only |
3. | II and III only | 4. | I, II, and III |
The formation of interfascicular cambium in plants is due to:-
1. Non-differentiation
2. Re-differentiation
3. Differentiation
4. De-differentiation
Interfascicular cambium and cork cambium are formed due to
1. Cell division
2. Cell differentitation
3. Cell dedifferentiation
4. Redifferentiation
The living differentiated cells, that lost the capacity to divide anymore, can regain the capacity of division under certain conditions. This phenomenon is termed as:
1. | Redifferentiation | 2. | Maturation |
3. | Differentiation | 4. | Dedifferentiation |
1. | Senescence | 2. | Differentiation |
3. | Dedifferentiation | 4. | Development |
