4.
Is not needed.
Consider the following statements regarding floral primordium:
| I: | It is formed at the shoot apical meristem |
| II: | The development of flowers is dependent on genetics, PGR, and environmental conditions. |
Of the two statements:
| 1. | Only I is correct |
| 2. | Only II is correct |
| 3. | Both I and II are correct |
| 4. | Both I and II are incorrect. |
The germ pore in the pollen wall:
| 1. | is an aperture in the pollen intine that allows the pollen tube to exit. |
| 2. | is the name of the nucleus of the microspore mother cell. |
| 3. | is formed where sporopollenin is located in the exine. |
| 4. | is an aperture in the pollen exine that allows the pollen tube to exit. |

A typical angiosperm embryosac, at maturity, is:
| 1. | 8 celled and 8 nucleate | 2. | 8 celled and 7 nucleate |
| 3. | 7 celled and 8 nucleate | 4. | 7 celled and 7 nucleate |

| 1. | Arboreal mammals | 2. | Insects |
| 3. | Birds | 4. | Reptiles |
Which of the following is not used by flowering plants as an outbreeding device?
| 1. | Lack of synchronization between pollen release and stigma receptivity. |
| 2. | Anther and Stigma placed at different levels. |
| 3. | Self-incompatibility. |
| 4. | Production of bisexual flowers. |
The pollen tube releases the two male gametes first into:
1. The vicinity of the egg cell.
2. The vicinity of polar nuclei.
3. In the cytoplasm of synergids.
4. In the cytoplasm of antipodals.
