Nitrates, phosphates and sulphates are plants

  1. Disease

  2. Pollutants

  3. Nutrients

  4. Organic pollutants
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Nitrates, phosphates, and sulphates are essential inorganic compounds that plants absorb from the soil to synthesize proteins and other vital molecules, thus acting as nutrients.

A Correct answer
Explanation

Many plants, especially certain trees and shrubs, emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and hydrocarbons into the atmosphere as part of their natural metabolic processes.

The source of atmospheric oxygen is

  1. Nitrogen cycle

  2. Green Plants

  3. Water

  4. Carbon Cycle
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Atmospheric oxygen is primarily replenished through the process of photosynthesis, which is carried out by green plants, algae, and cyanobacteria.

Cuticular transpiration is observed mainly in?

  1. Xerophytes

  2. Herbaceous plants

  3. Trees

  4. Shrubs
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Xerophytes are plants adapted to dry environments. They often have a thick waxy cuticle to prevent water loss, and cuticular transpiration becomes a significant pathway for water loss in these conditions.

What reduces amount of light reaching leaf?

  1. Sulfur oxide emission

  2. Carbon dioxide

  3. Dust and Smog

  4. Nitrogen
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Dust and smog particles suspended in the air scatter and absorb sunlight, thereby reducing the intensity and quality of light that reaches the leaf surface for photosynthesis.

Which of the following is the major adaptation for a plant to survive in the xerophytic conditions?

  1. Long tap root

  2. Lack of stomata

  3. Spines

  4. Stipular leaves
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

CactI are among the most drought-resistant plants on the planet, due to their absence of leaves, shallow root systems, ability to store water in their stem, spines for shade and waxy skin to seal in moisture. Xerophytes can have smaller leaves or fewer branches than other plants. An example of leaf surface reduction are the spines of a cactus. Spines also protect the plants from animals and collect moisture too.

Some plants have a habit of harbouring ants to save the plants from damage by other animals which is known as

  1. Entomophily

  2. Myrmacrophily

  3. Anemophily

  4. Hydrophily

  5. Zoophily
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Myrmecophily is the term applied to positive interspecies associations between ants and a variety of other organisms such as plants, other arthropods, and fungi. Myrmecophily refers to mutualistic associations with ants, though in its more general use the term may also refer to commensal or even parasitic interactions. The term myrmecophile is used mainly for animals that associate with ants.

Halophytes can grow on physiological dry soil due to

  1. Dry soil

  2. Excessive humidity outside

  3. Excessive salts in plants

  4. Excessive salts in water
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Halophytes grow in physiologically dry soil. The soil is having water but the soil solution has a high concentration of salts. Thus, the water is not easily available to plants, because water flows from a region of high water potential to a region of low water potential. 

Excess salt in soil solution means the water potential of soil solution is very less. To counter the reduction in water potential in the soil solution, the halophytes maintain a highly concentrated cell sap. So, the concentration of salt is very high in these plants.
So, the correct answer is option C.

Which one is a xerophyte?

  1. Capparis

  2. Lotus

  3. China Rose

  4. Casuarina
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Capparis decidua (family Capparidaceae) is commonly known as kair. It is 
distributed throughout the arid regions of India and other countries. Kair is a caducous plant, so in the foliage condition mainly stem and fruits are common. It is also known as Capparis aphylla.
Since the plant is xerophytic, it is generally found in dessert area and is highly draught resistant plant, which can survive for long. Tribal people prepare pickle from the fruits of kair.

The plants in which vascular tissues are absent and well developed aerenchyma is present are

  1. Xerophytes

  2. Halophytes

  3. Hydrophytes

  4. Mesophytes
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Hydrophytes are water loving plants and grow in aquatic environments. In these plants mechanical tissue is absent. Xylem is poorly developed or absent. Hydrophytes possess special air storage parenchyma, called as aerenchyma. It makes plant parts light, spongy and flexible.
