Assertion (A): Guttation occurs throughout the day in plants. Reason (R): Stomata have guard cells which open and close and help in transpiration.

Which of these statements is/are true ? (i) The surface area avaiable for cellular function in a prokaryotic cell is less than that in a eukaryotic cell. (ii) The total genome size of a prokayotic cell is always less than that of a eukaryotic cell. (iii) Unlike eukaryotes, no special respiratory respiratory organelles are found in prokaryotes. Hence they respire at a much lesser rate than eukaryotes. (iv) Eukaryotic cells show various membrane bound organelles such as chloroplasts and nucles while ribosomes are the only membrane bound organelles found is prokaryotes.

Assertion : In lotus metabolism is hindered when the leaves are coated with wax on upper surface. Reason : In lotus, stomata are present on upper epidermis, so that if leaves are coated with wax on upper surface, stomatal transpiration will not occur.
