Assertion : Only the pre-pollination growth of male gametophyte occurs inside the microsporangium whereas the remaining growth occurs over the female reproductive organs. Reason : Whole of the growth of female gametophyte occurs inside the megasporangium.

Assertion: In diplontic life cycle, gametophyte is dominant. Reason: In diplontic life cycle, there is not free living sporophyte.

Assertion : Most of the chemical reactions do not start automatically. Reason : Reactant molecules have an energy barrier to become reactive.

Assertion : Self-incompatibility is a genetic mechanism which prevents self-pollination and thereby fertilisation by inhibiting either pollen germination or pollen tube growth in the pistil. Reason : In gametophytic self-incompatibility, the incompatibility reaction is determined by the genotype of the sporophytic tissue of the plant from which the pollen is derived.

Assertion : Tropical regions have got a long evolutionary time for species diversification as compared to temperate regions. Reason : Temperate regions have undergone frequent glaciations in the past whereas tropical regions have remained relatively undisturbed for millions of years.

Assertion : When yelow bodied, white eyed Drosophila females were hybridised with brown-bodied, red eyeed males , and F_(1) progeny was intercrossed, F_(2) ratio deviated from 9:3:3:1 Reason : When two genes in a dihybrid are on same chromosome, the proportion of parental gene combinations are much higher than the non-parental type
