Questions Related to internal structure of dicot leaf
Dorsiventral leaf is identified by the presence of
-
Stomata on both the epidermis
-
Stomata mainly present on the lower epidermis
-
No stomata on the epidermis
-
Sunken stomata on the upper epidermis
Stoma (plural stomata) is a pore, found in the epidermis of leaves, stems and other organs that is used to control gas exchange. Monocots have isobilateral leaf and dicots have dorsiventral leaf. Dicotyledons usually have more stomata on the lower epidermis than the upper epidermis. Monocotyledons, on the other hand, usually have the same number of stomata on the two epidermis. In plants with floating leaves, stomata may be found only on the upper epidermis and submerged leaves may lack stomata entirely.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
A dorsiventral leaf has
-
Palisade tissue on both sides
-
Spongy tissue on both sides
-
Palisade tissue on upper side and spongy tissue on lower side
-
Spongy tissue on upper side and palisade tissue on lower side
In the dorsiventral leaf or dicot leaf, mesophyll is differentiated into palisade parenchyma and spongy parenchyma. Palisade parenchyma is present on the upper side and spongy parenchyma is present on the lower side.
Mesophyll is differentiated into palisade and spongy tissues in.
-
Extremely xerophytic leaves
-
Hydrophytic leaves
-
Monocot leaves
-
Dicot leaves
The region present between the upper and lower epidermises is called mesophyll. In dicot leaves, mesophyll is differentiated into upper palisade parenchyma and lower spongy parenchyma. It is found in dicot leaves.
So, the correct answer is ‘Dicot leaves’
In dorsiventral leaf, more number of stomata
-
Occur on both the layers of epidermis
-
Occur on lower epidermis
-
Occur in pits on the upper epidermis
-
Do not occur on the epidermis
-
Bryophytes
In dorsiventral leaf, more number of stomata occur on lower epidermis and less number of stomata present on upper epidermis.
So, the correct option is ‘occur on lower epidermis'.
In a dorsiventral leaf, the location of xylem and phloem is
-
Abaxial and adaxial respectively
-
Adaxial and abaxial respectively
-
Both are abaxial
-
Both are adaxial
in dorsiventral or dicot leaf, midirib or main vein represents the vascular bundles. In this, xylem is present towards upper epidermis and phloem present towards the lower epidermis. These are collateral, conjoint, closed the position of protoxylem and metaxylem is not specified clearly.
So, the correct answer is 'Adaxial and abaxial respectively'.
In dorsiventral leaves stomata occur
-
More on upper palisade containing surface and less on spongy parenchyma containing lower surfac
-
Fewer on upper surface and more on lower surface
-
Equally on both
-
None of the two surfaces
In dorsiventral leaves, less stomata are present in the upper epidermis and more stomata are present on the lower epidermis.
So, the correct option is ‘Fewer on upper surface and more on lower surface’.
Tetrarch bundles occur in
-
Leaf of Cicer arietinum
-
Leaf of Pisum sativum
-
Root of Cicer arietinum
-
Root of Zea mays
Stele with four vascular bundles is called tetrarch stele. it is generally found in dicotyledons. In the vascular bundles xylem and phloem are on different raidii. So the vascular bundles are called radial vascular bundles. In the xylem protoxylem is faced towards the pericycle and metaxylem is faced towards the medulla. eg:Cicer arietinum roots.
