[1988]

Detailed Solution for Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 1

A somatic cell in the nucellus directly forms an unreduced embryo sac and the diploid egg parthenogenetically develops into embryo i.e. formation of gametophyte from sporophyte without meiosis. It is known as Apospory and it is a type of Apomixis.

Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 3

Male gametophyte of angiosperms is shed as

[1988]

Detailed Solution for Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 3

In majority of angiosperms the pollen grains are shed from the anther at bi-celled stage (one generative cell and one vegetative cell) but in some angiosperms the generative cell divides forming 2 sperms prior to the dehiscence of anther & pollen grains are shed at 3 celled stage.

Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 4

Total number of meiotic division required for forming 100 zygotes/100 grains of wheat is

[1988]

Detailed Solution for Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 4

100 zygotes requires 100 pollen grains and 100 embryo sacs. 100 pollen grains are formed from 25 microspore mother cells while 100 embryo sacs are formed from 100 functional megaspores which in turn are produced by 100 megaspore mother cells since three out of four megaspores degenerate in each case.

Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 5

Double fertilization and triple fusion were discovered by

[1988, 93]

Detailed Solution for Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 5

In angiosperms one male gamete fuses with the egg to form diploid zygote. The process is called syngamy. The other male gamete fuses with the two polar nuclei to form triploid primary endosperm nucleus. The process is called triple fusion. These two acts together known as double fertilization. The process was Ist demonstrated by Nawaschin & Guignard in Fritillaria & Lilium.

Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 6

Development of an organism from female gamete/egg without involving fertilization is

[1989]

Detailed Solution for Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 6

Parthenogenesis can be defined es formation of embryo from an unfertilised egg or female gamete. Parthenogenetic plants are homozygous so, they have more importance in plant breeding and genetics.

Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 7

Nucellar embryo is

[1989]

Detailed Solution for Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 7

Substitution of usual sexual reproduction by a form of reproduction which does not include meiosis and syngamy is called apomixis. In this phenomenon embryo is developed by some other tissue without fertilization eg. nucellus or integuments or unfertilized egg. Nucellus is a diploid tissue so nucellar embryo is apomictic diploid.

Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 8

Generative cell was destroyed by laser but a normal pollen tube was still formed because

[1989]

Detailed Solution for Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 8

Each microspore divide by mitotic division making a smaller generative cell and a larger vegetative cell or tube cell. If generative cell is damaged then the normal pollen tube will be formed because pollen tube is formed by vegetative cell, not by generative cell of microspore.

Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 9

Which is correct?

[1989]

Detailed Solution for Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 9

Spores are for med in lower plants by mitotic division and they may be diploid but gametes are always be made by  meiosis & they are always haploid.

Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 10

A diploid female plant and a tetraploid male plant are crossed. The ploidy of endosperm shall be

[1989, 2004]

Detailed Solution for Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 10

Diploid female plant will have 2 polar nuclei (each haploid) with which one male gamete form tetraploid male plant (male gamete of tetraploid plant will be diploid) fuses, making endosperm. So endosperm will be tetraploid.

Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 11

Which ones produces androgenic haploids in anther cultures?

[1990]

Detailed Solution for Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 11

Androgenic haploids are produced by young pollen grains because rest all are the diploid tissue.

Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 12

Male gametophyte of angiosperms/monocots is

[1990]

Detailed Solution for Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 12

Microspore is haploid, uninucleate, minute spore produced in large number as a result of meiosis in microspore mother cell inside the microsporangia. These are the first cell of gametophytic generation in angiosperms.

Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 13

Female gametophyte of angiospermsis represented by

[1990]

Detailed Solution for Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 13

Embryo sac is 7-celled structure. There is a large central cell with two polar nuclei, egg apparatus with egg cell and 2 synergids present at micropylar end and its chalazal end, 3 antipodal cells are present.

Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 14

Sperm and egg nuclei fuse due to

[1990]

Detailed Solution for Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 14

Sperm or male gamete fuses with egg or female gamete because of the attraction of their protoplast. Some chemicals are secreted by ovule or egg wall to attract the male gamete or sperm.

Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 15

Entry of pollen tube through micropyle is

[1990]

Detailed Solution for Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 15

In porogamy the tip of pollen tube enters the micropyle, pushes through the nucellar tissue & finally pierces the egg-apparatus end of the embryo sac. If pollen tube enters through chalazal side it is called chalazogamy & if it enters laterally it is called mesogamy.

Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 16

Cellular totipotency was demonstrated by

[1991]

Detailed Solution for Test: Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants 5 - From Past 28 Years Questions - Question 16

F.C. Steward & co-workers in 1964 raised the entire carrot plant from carrot-root culture. They established the cellular totipotency i.e. capacity of a cell to develop a new plant. However the idea of totipotency was given earlier by German botanist Gottlieb Haberlandt. He tried to grow isolated leaf cell but could not succeed.
