Which one is true of male gamete of angiosperms?

  1. Large nucleus

  2. Thick sheath of cytoplasm

  3. Thin sheath of cytoplasm devoid of ce organelles

  4. Both B and C

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Pollen grains form the first cell of male gametophytic generation.It divides into two unequal cells; a small generative cell and a larger vegetative cell. During the germination of pollen tube over the carpel, the vegetative tube nucleus migrates into the pollen tube and reaches up to the distal end. The generative cell also migrates into the pollen tube and divides to form two male gametes. Each male gamete consists of a large nucleus surrounded by a thin sheath of cytoplasm. 

Thus, the correct answer is option A.

The zygote of angiosperms is

  1. Haploid

  2. Diploid

  3. Triploid

  4. Polyploid

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation
  • In angiosperms, as the pollen tube penetrates the ovule, it releases two sperm cells. One fuses with the egg to create a diploid zygote which develops into an embryo, while the other joins with the fusion nucleus to form a triploid nucleus that develops into endosperm.
  • So the correct answer is ' Diploid'.

The blood of cockroach contains no heamoglobin. It means that

  1. Oxygen goes directly into tissues by diffusion

  2. Respiration is anaerobic

  3. Cockroach does not respire

  4. Oxygen goes, directly into intracellular capillary system

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Cockroach blood is not red because they do not use hemoglobin to carry oxygen. In fact, their bloodstream is not used to carry oxygen either. They use a system of pipes called tracheae to bring the oxygen and remove carbon dioxide from their tissues and oxygen goes directly into tissues by diffusion. So, the correct option is A. ( Oxygen goes directly into tissues by diffusion )
