The correct Answer is:
To answer the question regarding the statements A to C related to a specific plant, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Plant**: The first statement mentions that the plant was introduced in India due to its beautiful flowers and shape of leaves. This suggests that the plant has ornamental value. **Hint**: Think about plants that are known for their aesthetic appeal and have been introduced to new regions for this reason. 2. **Propagation Characteristics**: The second statement indicates that the plant can propagate vegetatively at a phenomenal rate, covering water bodies quickly. This suggests that the plant has a high growth rate and can spread rapidly in aquatic environments. **Hint**: Consider plants that are known for their rapid growth and ability to cover water surfaces, particularly those that can reproduce without seeds. 3. **Difficulty in Removal**: The third statement states that it is very difficult to get rid of these plants. This implies that the plant may become invasive, leading to ecological problems in the area where it spreads. **Hint**: Reflect on invasive aquatic plants that are known to cause issues in their introduced habitats. 4. **Conclusion**: Based on the analysis of the statements, the plant in question is likely **Water Hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes)**. This plant is known for its beautiful flowers, rapid vegetative propagation, and the challenges it poses in controlling its spread in water bodies. **Hint**: Recall specific examples of aquatic plants that fit all the criteria mentioned in the statements. ### Final Answer: The statements A to C are related to **Water Hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes)**.

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.

The figure below depicts life-histroy strategies for three plant species (a,b and c) along 3 axes : strength of competition with other organisms, level of distrubance in the habitat, and level of environmental stress in the habitat. Species a grows in habitats where competition among species b grown in habitats with and stress are low. Species b grows in habitats with high environmental stress but with low interspecies competition. Species c grows in highly disturbed habitats with low enviornmental stress. Which of the statements below is/are correct ? I. Characteristics of "a-type" plants are faster growth rate and short-lived leaves. II. Desert annual plants are "b-type" species. they have rapid growth and produce large amount of seeds in a short time after rains. III. Most plants belonging to "c-type" species would be herbaceous while "a-type" and "b-types" species are likely to be trees or shrubs.
