Go through the following statements:

a. Flowers are small. They are often packed in inflorescence

b. Flowers are colourless, nectarless and odourless

c. Well exposed stamens

d. Pollen grains - produced in large number, light, non-sticky

e. Flowers often have a single ovule in each ovary

f. Stigma - large, often feathery.

The above contrivances favour:

(1) Self pollination                             

(2) Anemophily

(3) Ornithophily                                 

(4) Entemophily

Find out the correct option:
(1) Among animals, insects, particularly bees are the dominant biotic pollinating agents

(2) Often flowers of animal- pollinated plants are specially adapted for particular species of animals

(3) In some species floral rewards like edible nectar, pollen grains, shelter for egg laying are given to pollinating animals

(4) All the above are correct

Which of the above characters favour entomophily?

(1) II, IV, V           

(2) I, II, III, VI      

(3) III, IV, V          

(4) I, IV, V, VI

Self-incompatibility:

(1) All are correct                              

(2) All are wrong

(3) Only I, II, III are correct               

(4) IV and V are wrong

Which of the following options is correct?
(1) Pollination gives the guarantee of the promotion of post-pollination events that lead to fertilization

(2) The events – “from pollen deposition on stigma until pollen tubes enter the ovule" are together referred to as pollen-pistil interaction

(3) Pollen-pistil interaction is a dynamic process involving pollen recognition followed by only promotion (not rejection) of the pollen

(4) Pistil has no ability to recognize the pollen, whether right or wrong type

In double fertilization total number of male nuclei and total number of female nuclei involved are:

(1) 3, 2 respectively                          

(2) 2, 3 respectively

(3) 2, 2 respectively                          

(4) 3, 3 respectively

(2) TTt                 

(3) Ttt                            

(4) ttt

For artificial hybridisation experiment in bisexual flower, which of the sequences is correct?
(1) Bagging → Emasculation → Cross pollination → Rebagging

(2) Emasculation → Bagging → Cross pollination → Rebagging

(3) Cross pollination → Bagging → Emasculation → Rebagging

(4) Self-pollination → Bagging → Emasculation → Rebagging

Which of the following is false?

(1) I and II only   

(2) III only           

(3) V only             

(4) II only
