Q. No.Water vapor comes out from the plant leaf through the stomatal opening. Through the same stomatal opening, carbon dioxide diffuses into the plant during photosynthesis. Reason out the above statements using one of the following options
1. Both processes cannot happen simultaneously
2. Both processes can happen together because the diffusion coefficient of water and CO2 is different
3. The above processes happen only during night time
4. One process occurs during day time and the other at night

Assertion: Increased turgor in guard cells opens stomata.
Reason: Rings of cellulose microfibrils prevent the width of the guard cells from swelling, and only allow the extra turgor pressure to elongate the guard cells.
1. Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
2. Both assertion and reason are true but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
3. Assertion is true but reason is false.
4. Both assertion and reason are false.
- If both the assertion and the reason are true and the reason is a correct explanation of the assertion
- If both the assertion and reason are true but the reason is not a correct explanation of the assertion
- If the assertion is true but the reason is false
- If both the assertion and reason are false

Electron transport chain in mitochondria uses the reduction energy of NADH to move protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane against their concentration gradient. This is an example of:
1. Facilitated diffusion
2. Forward osmosis
3. Primary active transport
4. Secondary active transport
Consider the following two statements:
I. The evolution of photosynthesis is probably one of the strategies for maximizing the availability of while minimizing water loss.
II. Plants with photosynthesis close their stomata during day and open them in night.
1. Both I and II are correct
2. I is correct and II is incorrect
3. I is incorrect and II is correct
4. Both I and II are incorrect
