The correct Answer is:
To match the columns correctly, we need to understand the definitions of each term in Column I and find the corresponding movement in Column II. Here’s the step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Understand Phototaxis - **Definition**: Phototaxis refers to the movement of an organism in response to light. - **Matching**: The movement of Chlamydomonas (a green alga) towards light is a classic example of phototaxis. - **Match**: A (Phototaxis) → 5 (Movement of Chlamydomonas). ### Step 2: Understand Thermotaxis - **Definition**: Thermotaxis is the movement in response to temperature. - **Matching**: The circular movement of protoplasm in response to warm conditions fits this definition. - **Match**: B (Thermotaxis) → 1 (Circular movement of protoplasm in response to warm condition). ### Step 3: Understand Chemotaxis - **Definition**: Chemotaxis refers to movement in response to chemical stimuli. - **Matching**: The movement of antherozoids towards archegonia is a well-known example of chemotaxis. - **Match**: C (Chemotaxis) → 4 (Movement of antherozoids towards archegonia). ### Step 4: Understand Hyponasty - **Definition**: Hyponasty is the upward movement of plant parts, typically in response to certain stimuli. - **Matching**: The upward movement of floral organs fits this definition. - **Match**: D (Hyponasty) → 2 (Upward movement of floral organs). ### Step 5: Understand Seismonasty - **Definition**: Seismonasty is a movement in response to mechanical stimuli, such as touch. - **Matching**: The drooping of leaves in the touch-me-not plant (Mimosa pudica) is a classic example of seismonasty. - **Match**: E (Seismonasty) → 3 (Drooping of leaf). ### Final Matches - A → 5 (Phototaxis → Movement of Chlamydomonas) - B → 1 (Thermotaxis → Circular movement of protoplasm in response to warm condition) - C → 4 (Chemotaxis → Movement of antherozoids towards archegonia) - D → 2 (Hyponasty → Upward movement of floral organs) - E → 3 (Seismonasty → Drooping of leaf) ### Summary of Matches - A: 5 - B: 1 - C: 4 - D: 2 - E: 3
