The correct Answer is:
To determine which statements are correct, we will analyze each statement one by one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Analyze Statement 1: Sterile triploid-Banana and other seedless fruits.** - Bananas are indeed sterile and are classified as triploid (3n). This means they do not produce seeds, which is characteristic of many seedless fruits. - **Conclusion:** This statement is correct. 2. **Analyze Statement 2: Somaclonal variations - Differences appearing in tissue culture.** - Somaclonal variation refers to the genetic variations that occur in plants that have been produced through tissue culture. These variations can arise due to the stress of tissue culture conditions. - **Conclusion:** This statement is correct. 3. **Analyze Statement 3: Embryoids - Non-zygotic embryos produced from somatic cells.** - Embryoids are indeed non-zygotic embryos that can be formed from somatic cells through a process called somatic embryogenesis. This is different from the typical zygotic embryos that arise from fertilization. - **Conclusion:** This statement is correct. 4. **Analyze Statement 4: Pulses belong to Cruciferae.** - This statement is incorrect. Pulses, such as beans and lentils, belong to the family Fabaceae (also known as Leguminosae), not Cruciferae, which is the family that includes mustard and cabbage. - **Conclusion:** This statement is incorrect. ### Final Conclusion: Based on the analysis: - Statements 1, 2, and 3 are correct. - Statement 4 is incorrect. Thus, the correct answer is that statements 1, 2, and 3 are correct.
