Select the plants pollinated by water: (a) Water Hyacinth (b) Zostera (c) Amorphophallus (d) Vallisneria (e) Yucca.

Read the following statements and find out the incorrect statements. a. Plants use two abiotic (wind and water) and one biotic (animals) agent to achieve pollination. b. Majority of plants use abiotic agents for pollination. c. Only a small proportion of plants uses biotic agents. d. Pollination by water is common among abiotic pollinators. e. Pollination by wind is quite rare in flowering plants and is restricted to about 30 genera mostly monocotyledons.

Read the following statements and find out the incorrect statements. a. In majority of organisms, male gamete is motile and female gamete is non-motile (stationary). b. In algae and fungi, both male and female gametes are non-motile. c. In seed plants, pollen grains are the carrier of male gametes and ovule has the egg. d. In dioecious plants, pollination facilitates transfer of pollen grains to the stigma. e. In monoecious animals, since male and female gametes are formed in different individuals, the or ganism must evolve special mechanism for gamete transfer.

Read the following statements and find out the incorrect statements. a. Asexual reproduction is common among single celled organisms, and in plants and animals with relatively complex organisations. b. In yeast, the division is unequal and small buds are produced that remain attached initially to the parent cell which eventually gets separated and mature into new yeast organism (cells). c. Vegetative reproduction is also a type of asexual reproduction. d. While in animals and other simple organisms the term vegetative reproduction is used unambiguously, in plants, the term asexual reproduction is frequently used. e. Water hyacinth is also called 'Terror of Bengal.'

Pick out the correct statements from the following. Also correct the incorrect statements. a) The number of molecules present in 1 mol hydrogen and 1 mol oxygen are same. b) 1 mole chlorine contain 4 xx 6.022 xx10^23 chlorine molecules. c) The mass of 1/2 mol nitrogengas is 14g. d) 0.5 mol water has the mass of 9g. There are 6.022 xx 10^23 H_2 O molecules in it. (Atomic mass H= 1.0= 16, Cl 35.5, N = 14).

Read the following statements and find out the incorrect statement. a. Embryo development precedes endosperm development. b. Though the seeds differs greatly the early stages of embryo development (embrogeny) are similar in both monocotyledons and dicotyledons. c. A typical dicotyledonous embryo consists of an embryonal axis and two cotyledons. d. Endosperm may either be completely consumed by the developing embryo (e.g., castor and coconut) before seed maturation or it may persist in the mature seed (e.g., wheat, rice, maize, pea, groundnut and beans). e. The coconut water from tender coconut is cellular endosperm and the surrounding while kernel is the nuclear endosperm.
