Botany and Plant Science

This is the correct option. A pistil consists of a basal swollen portion called the ovary.

This is the correct option. Anther is the swollen structure present on the tip of the filament.

This is the correct option. The female sex cells or gametes are present in the ovule.

This is the correct option. In mustard plant, the male and the female parts are present in the same flower. It is a bisexual plant.

This is the correct option. Maize flowers are pollinated by wind.

It is defined as the meristem appearing later in the life cycle of a plant. It develops dedifferentiation in the permanent tissues. It causes secondary growth in the plant body. The prominent examples are cork cambium and vascular cambium.

It is defined as the meristematic tissue differentiating into protective structures like epidermis.

It is defined as the parenchyma where cells enfold large intercellular spaces filled with air. It helps in buoyancy and respiration. It is peculiarly found in aquatic floating plants.

This is defined as the parenchyma occuring radially & being arranged in between the vascular bundles in the stem. It is meant for storage of conserved food in the plants.

This is defined as the xylem components which in certain angiosperms is confined to leaf surface only.

It is defined as the collenchyma where the deposition of hemicellulose and pectin takes place only in the angles between the cells. It is found in the stem, usually below the epidermis, forming a region called hypodermis.

Here xylem and phloem are present alternately in separate bundles. It is the characteristic feature of the root.

These are described as the phloem components consisted of living parenchyma cells, which are found in between the sieve tubes. They are meant only for storage of organic food.

The epidermis of green parts of plants like leaf and herbaceous stem posses many stomata which are surrounded by guard cells.

It is described as the outermost covering of the stem. It is represented by a single layer of densely arranged, barrel-shaped parenchymatous cells having no intercellular spaces.
