The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Vernalization**: - Vernalization is the process that induces flowering in plants after they have been exposed to prolonged periods of low temperatures. This is crucial for certain plants to transition from the vegetative stage to the flowering stage. 2. **Identifying the Fundamental Factor**: - The fundamental factor in vernalization is indeed low temperature. It is essential for the process to occur, as many plants require a cold period to trigger flowering. 3. **Exploring the Role of Other Factors**: - While low temperature is critical, other factors such as oxygen, water, and carbohydrates also play significant roles in the overall health and metabolic processes of the plant during vernalization. 4. **Analyzing the Statements**: - Statement [A]: "Fundamental factor in the vernalization is low temperature." - This statement is **True** because low temperatures are necessary for the vernalization process. - Statement [R]: "Vernalization is ineffective in the absence of oxygen, water, and adequate supplies of carbohydrates for respiratory processes." - This statement is **False** because while oxygen, water, and carbohydrates are important for the plant's overall health and respiration, they are not the fundamental factors for the process of vernalization itself. 5. **Conclusion**: - Based on the analysis, we conclude that Statement [A] is true and Statement [R] is false. Therefore, the correct answer is that [A] is true and [R] is false.

Carbohydrates are compounds containing only carbon, hydrogen and oxygen having the atomic ratio of H : O as 2 : 1 . When heated in the absence of air, these compounds decompose to form carbon and water. a. If 310 g of a carbohydrates leaves a residue of 124 g of carbon on heating in absence of air, whatis the empirical formula of the carbohydrate?

The straight lines in the figure depict the variations in temperature DeltaT as a function of the amount of heat supplied Q is different process involving the change of state of a monoatomic and a diatomic ideal gas . The initial states, ( P,V,T ) of the two gases are the same . Match the processes as described, with the straight lines in the graph as numbered. {:(,"Column-I",,"Column-II"),((A),"Isobaric process of monoatomic gas." ,(p),"1" ),((B),"Isobaric process of diatomic gas" ,(q),"2" ),((C),"Isochoric process of monoatomic gas" ,(r),"Minimum at section B"), ((D),"Isochoric process of diatomic gas" ,(s),"x-axis (i.e.'Q' axis)"):}

Three moles of an ideal gas (C_p=7/2R) at pressure, P_A and temperature T_A is isothermally expanded to twice its initial volume. It is then compressed at constant pressure to its original volume. Finally gas is compressed at constant volume to its original pressure P_A . (a) Sketch P-V and P-T diagrams for the complete process. (b) Calculate the net work done by the gas, and net heat supplied to the gas during the complete process.
