Xerophytic
Xerophytes are plants of dry habitats, where the environment favours higher rate of transpiration than the rate of absorption.
Which one is not a trait of xerophytes?
-
Thick cuticle
-
Sunken stomata
-
Aerenchyma
-
Well developed mechanical tissue
Hydrophytes possess special air storage parenchyma tissue, called as aerenchyma. It makes different parts of hydrophytes, light, spongy and flexible. It makes oxygen produced during photosynthesis, available to roots and other non photosynthetic regions. It can also help in exchange of gases with the atmosphere through stomata present in emerged regions of plants. Xerophytes show structural adaptations to discourage water loss through transpiration and increase water absorption. Such adaptations include thick cuticle, sunken stomata, well developed vascular tissue etc.
The waxy surface of floating leaves of the hydrophytes prevents
-
Respiration
-
Photosynthesis
-
Transpiration
-
Clogging of stomata
Hydrophytes are water loving plants. The hydrophytes with floating leaves have large leaves, stomata and waxy coating on the upper surface. The waxy coating prevent wetting and clogging of stomata.
Which one of the following is correct matching of a plant, its habit and the forest type where it normally occurs
-
Prosopis, tree, scrub
-
Saccharum, grass, forest
-
Shorea robusta, herb, tropical rain forest
-
Acacia catechu, tree, coniferous forest
Plants like Rhizophora and Avicennia grow on the sea shores under saline conditions. For this they have special roots for respiration which are called
-
Floating roots
-
Pneumatophores
-
Climbing roots
-
Prop roots
Pneumatophores are specialized root structures that grow out from the water surface and facilitate the aeration necessary for root respiration in hydrophytic trees such as many mangrove species (e.g., Avicennia germinans and Laguncularia raecemosa), bald cypresses, and cotton (Tupelo) gum (Nyssa aquatica). So, the correct option is "B" (Pneumatophores).
Choose the feature not associated with organism found in tropical deserts
-
Small body size
-
Large surface area relative to their volume
-
Large body extremities
-
Small surface area relative to their volume
Tropical desert areas are those where there is scarcity of water and extensive heat. Organisms in those areas adapt to survive in that ecological condition. Adaptations like thorns and succulents in flora helps the plants to survive without plenty of water. The leaves and stems undergo modification to conduct photosynthesis in less available water. Animals like frogs, rabbits, snakes, camels, etc. also go through modification in their characteristics to ensure their survival. Large surface of an any organism can lead to radiation of more body heat per unit of mass which can be fatal. Hence, such adaptations is not seen in organisms present in tropical desert.
Cuticle in xerophytes acts as a barrier to evaporation and also the shiny surface reflects heat and so lowers temperature.

-
Spines
-
Stipular leaves
CactI are among the most drought-resistant plants on the planet, due to their absence of leaves, shallow root systems, ability to store water in their stem, spines for shade and waxy skin to seal in moisture. Xerophytes can have smaller leaves or fewer branches than other plants. An example of leaf surface reduction are the spines of a cactus. Spines also protect the plants from animals and collect moisture too.

Zoophily
Myrmecophily is the term applied to positive interspecies associations between ants and a variety of other organisms such as plants, other arthropods, and fungi. Myrmecophily refers to mutualistic associations with ants, though in its more general use the term may also refer to commensal or even parasitic interactions. The term myrmecophile is used mainly for animals that associate with ants.
Halophytes can grow on physiological dry soil due to
-
Dry soil
-
Excessive humidity outside
-
Excessive salts in plants
-
Excessive salts in water
Halophytes grow in physiologically dry soil. The soil is having water but the soil solution has a high concentration of salts. Thus, the water is not easily available to plants, because water flows from a region of high water potential to a region of low water potential.
Which one is a xerophyte?
-
Capparis
-
Lotus
-
China Rose
-
Casuarina
Capparis decidua (family Capparidaceae) is commonly known as kair. It is
distributed throughout the arid regions of India and other countries. Kair is a caducous plant, so in the foliage condition mainly stem and fruits are common. It is also known as Capparis aphylla.
Since the plant is xerophytic, it is generally found in dessert area and is highly draught resistant plant, which can survive for long. Tribal people prepare pickle from the fruits of kair.

Xerophytes are the plants that has adapted to survive in an environment with little liquid water, such as a desert or an ice- or snow-covered region in the Alps and Arctic regions. Succulents plants stores water. They have mucilage to retain water. Stomata are sunken and usually open only during nights.
A plant growing on a forest floor
-
Has shallow roots
-
Requires low light
-
Has a deep tap root
-
Requires strong light
-
Requires moist soil
Typical plants that are found on the forest floor include a variety of ferns, mangrove trees, and vines. The canopy of trees spread their leaves to attract as much sunlight. Though the forest floor is the principal sites of decomposition, there is a stiff competition for sunlight and nutrients. The plants that occupy the forest floor are ones that require low light as they are adapted to grow under conditions of low light availability and have large dark green leaves to absorb as much sunlight.
The features of the xerophytic plant leaves are:
(i) Leathery surface
(ii) Large surface area
(iii) Waxy cuticle
(iv) Sunken stomata on upper epidermis
-
(i), (ii) and (iv)
-
(i) and (iii)
-
(i), (iii) and (iv)
-
(i) and (iv)
Xerophytes are plants of dry habitats, which are faced with the problem of more water loss through transpiration than is water available from soil, e.g., Acacia, Casuarina etc.
In these plants leaves or leaflets are often small, vertical, thick and leathery. Cuticle is thick and waxy. Stomata are sunken and restricted to lower surface of leaf.
The root pockets are present instead of root caps in
-
Utricularia
-
Eichhornia
-
Hydrilla
-
Limnophylla
- The root cap protects the growing tip of roots from soil and hard rock surface.
- As hydrophytes are generally aquatic plants, no such protection is needed for their roots.
- As a result of which root cap is absent in hydrophytes.
- In given options all are aquatic plants but utricularia, hydrilla and Limnophylla are rooted submerged plants there root are present in soil.
- Eichhornia is free floating aquatic plant and there root arr floating in water so they don't have the need of root cap they have root pockets.
- Option B is correct here.
Which one lacks both roots and stomata?
-
Hydrophytes
-
Mesophytes
-
Hygrophytes
-
Halophytes
Hydrophytes are water loving plants. Stomata are absent in submerged hydrophytic plants. But floating hydrophytes have stomata on upper surface. e.g., lotus. Exchange of gases occurs through general surface in submerged hydrophytes. Emergent hydrophytes possess special air storage parenchyma called aerenchyma. It makes their different parts light, spongy and flexible. It can also help in exchange of gases with the atmosphere through stomata present in emergent regions. Roots of hydrophytes are poorly developed or completely absent in Wolffia.

Resource partinotiong can only take place when
-
Species have different feeding manner
-
Species only have different foraging manner.. no matters feeding type different or same
-
Different fedding and foraging time
-
None
Resource partitioning is the phenomenon of evolutionary changes seen in species in response to the selection pressure generated by interspecific competition. Due to this, no two organisms within the same species can coexist in the same niche if they have same resources. They have different foraging manner whether feeding type is different or same. Example of resource partitioning involves two tigers present in their own territories or niches and defending it from other tigers.
Excessive aerenchyma tissues in the plants is mainly an adaptation for.

The most effective defence of plants against herbivores are
-
Morphological
-
Chemical
-
Temporal
-
Developmental
To counter the herbivore attack, plants produce specialized morphological structures or secondary metabolites and proteins that have toxic, repellent effects on the herbivores. Plants confront the herbivores both directly by affecting host plant preference or survival and reproductive success (direct defense), and indirectly through other species such as natural enemies of the insect pests (indirect defense). Direct defenses are mediated by plant characteristics that affect the herbivores biology such as mechanical protection on the surface of the plants (e.g., hairs, trichomes, thorns, spines, and thicker leaves) or production of toxic chemicals such as terpenoids, alkaloids, anthocyanins, phenols, and quinones) that either kill or retard the development of the herbivores.
Submerged hydrophytes have commonly dissected leaves for
-
Decreasing surface area
-
Increasing surface area
-
Reducing effect of water currents
-
Both B and C
The submerged leaves are often highly dissected or divided. This has the advantage of creating a very large surface area for absorption and photosynthesis. It also minimises water resistance and hence, potential damage to the leaves since moving water (currents and waves) can be damaging to the leaves of the plant.
In xerophytes, photosynthesis, often occurs through
-
Root
-
Modified stem
-
Stomata
-
Scaly leaves
Xerophytes are plants, that have small amount of water or moisture, so they have adaptations that allow them to survive in these harsh conditions. These plants are like cactus and other succulents are typically found in deserts.
One of the advantages of growing chilli plants between two rows ofgreen gram plants, is that

Belt's corpuscles are certain corpuscles containing food secreted by the plants at the tips of their leaflets for ants to maintain myrmecophily. They are seen in leaves of acacia sphaerocephala as it is a myrmecophile.
Which of the following is wrong about xerophytes?
-
Sunken stomata
-
Small spiny leaves
-
Thick cuticle
-
Large number of stomata
Xerophytes show structural adaptations to discourage water loss through transpiration and increase water absorption. Such, adaptations include small spiny leaves, thick waxy cuticle on leaf surface, sunken stomata and well developed vascular tissue. Leaves show reduction in number of stomata to cut off transpiration losses of water. Also some succulents show 'Crassulacean Acid Metabolism (CAM)'. Their stomata open only during night.
The plants of this group are adapted to live partly in water and partly above substratum and free from water. Name the group.
-
Xerophytes
-
Thalophytes
-
Halophytes
-
Hydrophytes
Halophytes are plants adapted to grow in saline conditions. They grow in mangroves, coastal dunes and marshes. The environmental conditions are high salinity and high level of water. The lower parts of trees are permanently submerged in water and grow pneumatophores for gaseous exchange and respiration. The upper parts of these plants are not submerged and freely exposed to atmosphere.
Which of the following is not an adaptive feature of plants growing in physiologically dry soil?
-
Pneumatophore
-
Vivivary
-
Sunken stomata
-
All of the above
Physiologically dry soil means that water is present in soil but due to high levels of salt, it is not available to plants as plants cannot easily absorb the water present in soil. Such plants are called halophiles, e.g., mangrove plants like Sonnertia, Rhizophora, Avicennia etc. Such plants show several unique features such as presence of pneumatophores and vivipary. Sunken stomata is not shown by mangroves but is shown by xerophytes which grow in physically dry soil. Thus, the correct answer is option C.
