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.
A typical angiosperm anther is:
1. Bilobed and polythecous
2. Unilobed and monothecous
3. Multilobed and monothecous
4. Bilobed and dithecous
When the embryosac develops from a single functional megaspore [the other three get generate], it is called as:
| 1. | Monosporic | 2. | Bisporic |
| 3. | Trisporic | 4. | Tetrasporic |
Geitonogamy is:
| 1. | Functionally cross–pollination but genetically autogamy |
| 2. | Functionally autogamy but genetically cross-pollination |
| 3. | Functionally and genetically autogamy |
| 4. | Functionally and genetically cross-pollination |
Which of the following is/are a marine plant pollinated by water?
| 1. | Vallisneria | 2. | Hydrilla |
| 3. | Zostera | 4. | Both 1 and 2 |
In angiosperms, triple fusion results in the formation of:
| 1. | Zygote | 2. | Endosperm |
| 3. | Nucellus | 4. | PEC |
Identify the incorrect statement regarding Parthenium hysterophorus:
| 1. | Its pollens are a very common cause of severe respiratory allergies. |
| 2. | It was introduced in India accidentally as a contaminant in wheat. |
| 3. | It is a native of tropical America |
| 4. | It is non-invasive and limited to certain pockets in India only |
Identify the incorrectly matched pair:
| Cell | Ploidy | |
| 1. | Cells of nucellus | Diploid |
| 2. | Megaspore mother cell | Haploid |
| 3. | Functional megaspore | Haploid |
| 4. | Cells of female gametophyte | haploid |
The only type of pollination which during pollination brings a genetically different type of pollen grains to the stigma is:
| 1. | Chasmogamy | 2. | Cleistogamy |
| 3. | Geitonogamy | 4. | Xenogamy |
