Product of photosynthesis is transported from the leaves to various parts of the plants and stored in some cell before being utilised. What are the cells/ tissues that store them?

The transport of food produced in leaves to each cell in the plant body is called …………..

In plant cell minerals are stored in

One word in the following statements is wrong. Correct the statements by changing this wrong word: The xylem transports the food from the leaves to other parts of the plant where it is either consumed or stored.

Diseases in humans can be prevented by administration of vaccines. Vaccines contain inactivated, killed / weakened pathogens that can be used as antigens to provide either permanent or temporary immunity against a specific pathogen or disease. Conventional methods of vaccine preparation include the use of completely or partially killed pathogens. These vaccines however posed a risk of causing disease in case of some persons. Biotechnological techniques provide alternative antigenic genes isolated in the laboratory that can be used to make pure forms of proteins that can be used as antigens to activate the immune system. Recent developments in this field include production of edible vaccines like transgenic potatoes. Consumption of raw potatoes is speculated to develop immunity against the pathogen. These edible vaccines are produced by inserting genes isolated from specific pathogens to produce the antigen in the plants. Based on the given paragraph answer the following questions. What is the disadvantage of transgenic potatoes containing edible vaccines?

What are the cells that make the leaves curl in plants during water stress?

Read the paragraph and answer the questions given below it. The cells of the nervous tissue become excited on receiving stimuli and conduct that excitation from one part of the body to another. The cell body containing the cytoplasm and nucleus is the main part of each nerve cell. Numerous, small, branched fibres called dendrites arise from the cell body of the nerve cell. One of the fibres is extremely long, it is called the axon. Numerous nerve cells are bound by connective tissue to form a nerve. Nervous tissue is present in the brain, spinal cord and the network of nerves spread all through the body. In most of the animals, response to stimuli occurs due to the integrated functioning of the nervous and muscular tissue. What is the cell body of a nerve cell composed of?

Observe the diagram and answer the questions given below it. What is the use of the culturing tissues/ organs from stem cells?
