Dermal tissues, ground tissues and vascular tissues are produced by

  1. intercalary meristem tissues

  2. apical meristem tissues

  3. parenchyma tissues

  4. collenchyma tissues

  5. sclerenchyma tissues


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Yes, it is the correct answer. Specific regions of apical meristem produce dermal tissues, ground tissues and vascular tissues.

Which of the following statements is false regarding epidermal tissue of plants?

  1. It is made of elongated compact cells.

  2. Cuticle is present in stem and root.

  3. Stoma is found in this layer.

  4. Its cells bear hair.

  5. It is the outermost layer.


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Yes, it is the correct answer as this is a false statement.

Which of the following meristems helps in increasing the girth of a plant?

  1. Lateral meristem

  2. Intercalary meristem

  3. Primary meristem

  4. Apical meristem


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Lateral meristem helps in increasing the girth of a plant.

Why are sieve tubes suited for translocation of food?

  1. Because of bordered pits

  2. Because of no end walls

  3. Because of broader lumen and perforated cross walls

  4. Because of bordered pits and absence of protoplasm


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

The end walls of sieve tubes are perforated and these perforated end plates are called sieve plates. Pores in these tubes offer less resistance.

Which of the following is the correct set of components of xylem tissue?

  1. Xylem fibres, sieve cells, sclerenchyma cells and tracheids

  2. Vessels, tracheids, xylem parenchyma and fibres

  3. Collenchyma cells, fibres, companion cells and vessels

  4. Tracheids, xylem collenchyma, xylem parenchyma and meristem


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Xylem tissue consists of vessels, tracheids, xylem parenchyma and fibres.

Which of the following tissues translocates food in plants?

  1. Xylem

  2. Phloem

  3. Collenchyma

  4. Sclerenchyma


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Phloem tissue translocates food in plants.

Which of the following is a function of meristem?

  1. Absorption of water

  2. Absorption of minerals

  3. Translocation of food

  4. Growth of plants


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Meristematic tissue helps in plant growth. Throughout the life of the plant, the rate of cell division and cell elongation in the meristems is regulated by plant hormones. 

Meristematic tissues are distinguished by which of the following features?

  1. They have power of cell division.

  2. They lack power of cell division.

  3. They are highly differentiated cells.

  4. They are lignified.


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Meristematic tissues exhibit cell division.

Which tissue provides buoyancy to aquatic plants?

  1. Parenchyma

  2. Chlorenchyma

  3. Aerenchyma

  4. Sclerenchyma


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Aerenchyma is present in aquatic plants to provide buoyancy.

Which of the following xylem cells are mainly supportive in function?

  1. Parenchyma

  2. Tracheids

  3. Fibres

  4. Vessels


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Cells of vessels do not have end walls.

  1. A – i, B – iii, C – v, D – ii, E – iv

  2. A – iii, B – i, C – ii, D – v, E – iv

  3. A – ii, B – iv, C – v, D – i, E – iii

  4. A – v, B – iv, C – iii, D – ii, E – i


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

A. Meristem               iii. Actively dividing cells B. Parenchyma         i. Photosynthesis, storage C. Collenchyma        ii. Mechanical support D. Sclerenchyma      v. Sclereids E. Epidermal tissue  iv. Stomata

Which of the following is/are produced by intercalary meristem?

  1. Secondary growth

  2. Primary growth

  3. Apical growth

  4. Lateral branches


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Intercalary meristem is involved in primary growth.

Chlorenchyma is a modification of

  1. parenchyma

  2. collenchyma

  3. sclerenchyma

  4. None of these


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Chlorenchyma is a modification of parenchyma.

Which of the following statements is true for collenchyma?

  1. Cells of this tissue are dead.

  2. Cell wall of this tissue is made of lignin.

  3. It has little intercellular spaces.

  4. It has hard and rigid walls.


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Collenchyma cells are living. Their cell wall is made of cellulose. Cells are closely packed with no or little intercellular spaces.  

Which of the following tissues is/are present in the husk of coconut?

  1. Parenchyma

  2. Collenchyma

  3. Sclerenchyma

  4. All of the above


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Sclerenchyma is present in the husk of coconut.
