A Correct answer
Explanation

In agriculture, green manure is created by leaving uprooted or sown crop parts to grow on the field so that they improve soil properties. In green manure, quick-growing crops such as Crotolaria juncea and Alhagi camelorum which are cultivated and ploughed into the soil which increases crop yield by 30-50%. Crotolaria juncea, commonly known as Indian hemp is a tropical Asian plant belonging to family Fabaceae. Alhagi camerolum, commonly known as camelthorn belongs to family Fabaceae.

  1. Embryo

  2. Cotyledons

  3. Endosperm

  4. None of the above

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

Arachis hypogaea, commonly known as groundnut or peanut is a legume crop which is grown mainly for its edible seeds and oil present in the seeds i.e in cotyledons. It belongs to family Fabaceae. In groundnut, the cotyledons are the source of food and oil. Peanut oil is often used in cooking. Due to its monounsaturated content, it is considered more healthful than saturated oils and it is resistant to rancidity. So, the correct answer is 'Cotyledons'.

  2. Flowers actinomorphic, aestivation twisted and gamopetalous

  3. Stamens 10, introrse, basifixed, bithecous

  4. Monocarpellary, ovary superior and bent stigma

  5. Fruit is legume

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

Fabaceae or Papilionaceae, commonly known as a legume, pea and bean family is an economically important family of flowering plants. In Fabaceae, the flowers are medianly zygomorphic (bilateral symmetry), bisexual. Ascending imbricate aestivation (posterior petal overlaps) is seen. Petals are five, polypetalous (flowers having distinct or separate petals).

So, the correct answer is 'Flowers actinomorphic, aestivation twisted and gamopetalous'.

  2. Aloe

  3. Brinjal

  4. <p> Belladona</p>

  5. <p> Asparagus</p>

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

Pisum commonly known as a pea is a genus of flowering plant belonging to family Fabaceae. In Fabaceae, the flowers are zygomorphic (bilateral symmetry), bisexual. The petals 5, polypetalous, the posterior outermost petal is large (the vexillum or standard), two lateral petals (the wings or alae) and the two anterior and innermost petals are united to form a boat-shaped structure (the keel or carina), descending imbricate or vexillary aestivation. Stamens are 10, diadelphous (stamens united by their filaments so as to form two groups). Placentation is marginal (placenta forms a rigid along ventral side and ovules are arranged in two vertical rows). So, the correct answer is 'Pisum'.
