I: | vertical growth of seedlings |
II: | thinning of the axis |
III: | apical hook formation |
Statement I: | In cotton, coriander, and larkspur, differences in the shapes of leaves produced in air and those produced in water represent heterophyllous development due to environment. |
Statement II: | In buttercup, the leaves of the juvenile plant are different in shape from those in mature plants. |
1. | Statement I is correct; Statement II is incorrect |
2. | Statement I is correct; Statement II is correct |
3. | Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is incorrect |
4. | Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is correct |
Assertion (A): | Plant growth is intimately linked to the water status of the plant while development is not. |
Reason (R): | The plant cells grow in size by cell enlargement which in turn requires water. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not correctly explain (A). |
3. | (A) is True; (R) is False. |
4. | (A) is False; (R) is True. |
Assertion(A): | Synthetic auxin herbicides, including 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) have been developed and used for broadleaf weed control. |
Reason(R): | Auxins are toxic to plants in large concentrations; they are most toxic to dicots and less so to monocots. |
1. | (A) is True; (R) is False |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A) |
3. | (A) is False; (R) is True |

II: | Cells/tissues arising out of the same meristem have different structures at maturity. |
1. | Both I and II are correct and II explains I |
2. | Both I and II are correct but II does not explain I |
3. | I is correct but II is incorrect |
4. | I is incorrect but II is correct |
