Case Based Questions Test: Sexual Reproduction in Flowering Plants - Question 2

Read the following text and answer the following questions on the basis of the same:
Study the given diagram and answer any of the four questions given below:

This diagram represent which type of ovule

Detailed Solution: Question 2

Option C is correct: Anatropous.

  • In an anatropous ovule the body is inverted so that the ovule is turned through about 180°, bringing the micropyle close to the funicle.

  • The chalaza is at the opposite end while the nucellus and integuments are folded so that the micropyle appears near the funicular attachment; this curvature is visible in the diagram.

  • These features - a strongly curved/inverted ovule with the micropyle adjacent to the funicle - identify the ovule as anatropous.

Read the following text and answer the following questions on the basis of the same:

A typical anther is bilobed. It is a tetragonal structure consisting of four microsporangia. These microsporangia form pollen sac which on maturity gets filled with a pollen grains. Pollen grains represent the male gametophytes, their cell wall is very hard. Pollen grains of many species cause severe allergies which cause various diseases in human beings.

The prominent pollen grain aperture called germ pore is present in:

Detailed Solution: Question 4

Parthenium is a invasive species in India, and its is also known as carrot grass or congress grass which is the major cause of allergy in India, the parthenium weed produces as much as 3,000 million pollen grains per square meter during the flowering season.

Topic in NCERT: Pollen Allergy and Its Causes

Line in NCERT: "It may be mentioned that Parthenium or carrot grass that came into India as a contaminant with imported wheat, has become ubiquitous in occurrence and causes pollen allergy."

Case Based Questions Test: Sexual Reproduction in Flowering Plants - Question 5

Read the following text and answer the following questions on the basis of the same:

Gynoecium, is the female reproductive part of the flower. It may consist of a single or more than one pistil. These pistil may be free or fuse. Each pistils has three parts, stigma, style and ovary. Ovary has an ovarian cavity, which has one or many chambers or locules. The placenta is located inside the ovarian cavity. Megasporangia or ovules arise from the placenta.

In which of the following plants the number of ovules in an ovary is one ?

Detailed Solution: Question 5

Mango possess a single ovule in each ovary and orchids, watermelon, and papaya have multiple ovules present in each ovary.

Topic in NCERT: The Megasporangium (Ovule)

Line in NCERT: "The number of ovules in an ovary may be one (wheat, paddy, mango) to many (papaya, water melon, orchids)."

Case Based Questions Test: Sexual Reproduction in Flowering Plants - Question 6

Read the following text and answer the following questions on the basis of the same:

Gynoecium, is the female reproductive part of the flower. It may consist of a single or more than one pistil. These pistil may be free or fuse. Each pistils has three parts, stigma, style and ovary. Ovary has an ovarian cavity, which has one or many chambers or locules. The placenta is located inside the ovarian cavity. Megasporangia or ovules arise from the placenta.

Which among the following cell is binucleate in an embryo sac ?

Detailed Solution: Question 6

Central cell form binucleate endosperm mother cell upon fertilization with one of the two sperm cells, forms triploid endosperm to nourish embryo development.

Topic in NCERT: nucleate embryo sac

Line in NCERT: "The large central cell, as mentioned earlier, has two polar nuclei."

Case Based Questions Test: Sexual Reproduction in Flowering Plants - Question 7

Read the following text and answer the following questions on the basis of the same:
A typical anther is bilobed. It is a tetragonal structure consisting of four microsporangia. These microsporangia form pollen sac which on maturity gets filled with a pollen grains. Pollen grains represent the male gametophytes, their cell wall is very hard. Pollen grains of many species cause severe allergies which cause various diseases in human beings.
Direction : In the following questions a statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as:
Assertion (A) : The innermost layer of microsporangium is called tapetum.
Reason (R) : Tapetum nourishes the  microspores for thier development into pollen grains.

Detailed Solution: Question 7

Let's analyze the Assertion (A) and Reason (R) based on the provided text:
Assertion (A): The innermost layer of microsporangium is called tapetum.

  • This statement is true. In the structure of a microsporangium, the tapetum is indeed the innermost layer, surrounding the developing pollen grains.

Reason (R): Tapetum nourishes the develop into pollen grains.

  • This statement is true. The function of the tapetum is to provide nutrients and support to the developing pollen grains.

Both assertion (A) and reason (R) are true but reason (R) is not the correct explanation of assertion
Topic in NCERT: Tapetum
Line in NCERT: "The innermost wall layer is the tapetum. It nourishes the developing pollen grains."

Case Based Questions Test: Sexual Reproduction in Flowering Plants - Question 8

Read the following text and answer the following questions on the basis of the same:

A typical anther is bilobed. It is a tetragonal structure consisting of four microsporangia. These microsporangia form pollen sac which on maturity gets filled with a pollen grains. Pollen grains represent the male gametophytes, their cell wall is very hard. Pollen grains of many species cause severe allergies which cause various diseases in human beings.

Select the odd one out with respect to wall layers of microsporangium in flowering plants.

Detailed Solution: Question 8

The integuments are the outer layer(s) of the ovule and develop into a seed coat as the ovule matures following fertilization.

Topic in NCERT: Structure of microsporangium

Line in NCERT: "Four wall layers, the epidermis, endothecium, middle layers and the tapetum surround the microsporangium."

Case Based Questions Test: Sexual Reproduction in Flowering Plants - Question 9

Read the following text and answer the following questions on the basis of the same:

Gynoecium, is the female reproductive part of the flower. It may consist of a single or more than one pistil. These pistil may be free or fuse. Each pistils has three parts, stigma, style and ovary. Ovary has an ovarian cavity, which has one or many chambers or locules. The placenta is located inside the ovarian cavity. Megasporangia or ovules arise from the placenta.

Flowers with both androecium and gynoecium are called :

Detailed Solution: Question 9

Androecium is the male part and gynoecium is the female part, and in those flower have both of these they are called bisexual flower.

Topic in NCERT: SEXUAL REPRODUCTION IN FLOWERING PLANTS

Line in NCERT: "the androecium consists of a whorl of stamens representing the male reproductive organ and the gynoecium represents the female reproductive organ."

Case Based Questions Test: Sexual Reproduction in Flowering Plants - Question 10

At what temperature pollens can be stored for years in liquid nitrogen?

Detailed Solution: Question 10

To store pollens for years in liquid nitrogen, the correct temperature is -196°C (C: -196°C). Here's why:
- Liquid nitrogen is  ideal for long-term storage of biological samples.
- At this temperature, biological activities are significantly slowed down, preserving the integrity of the stored material.
- Extreme cold like -196°C prevents degradation and maintains the viability of the stored pollens for an extended period.
Topic in NCERT: Pollen Storage and Viability
Line in NCERT: "it is possible to store pollen grains of a large number of species for years in liquid nitrogen (-196°C)."
