    The top part A of the flask-shaped reproductive organ X in the flower of a plant secretes a surgery substance into its lower part B which goes towards the bottom part C of the flask-shaped organ. When a tiny grain D coming from the top part E of another reproductive organ Y in the flower falls on part A, it grows a long tube F through the organ X in response to the sugary substance and reaches the bottom part C of flask-shaped organ to carry out fertilisation. (a) What is (i) organ X, and (ii) organ, Y inside the flower? (b) Name parts (i) A (ii) B, and (iii) C, of flask-shaped organ. (c) Name (i) grain D, and (ii) part E of organ Y. (d) Name the tube F. (e) What is the phenomeon of growing a long tube in response to a sugary substance in the process of fertilisation in a flower known as?

    Water and dissolved minerals get into the root hair of a plant by a process called A and enter the conducting tissue B. The C helps the water and dissolved minerals to move up through the tissue B in roots and stem, and reach the leaves of a plant. In the leaves food is made by a process D. This food is then transported to all the parts of a plant through tissue E. The process of distributing food made in the leaves to all the parts of the plant is called F. (a) What are (i) A (ii) B (iii) C (iv) E, and (iv) F ? (b) Which tissue is made up of living cells : B or E ? (c) Name one substance (other than oxygen) which is transported by tissue A in the human body. (d) Which two components of tissue A are the cells without nucleus ? (e) Name any two organisms (animals) which do not have liquid like A in their body.
