A translator consists of.
  1. A pollinium, a caudicle and a corpusculum

  2. Two pollinia, two caudicles and two corpuscula

  3. Two pollinia, two caudicles and one corpusculum

  4. Two pollinia and one corpusculum


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

The translator is the special structure to aid the unique type of pollination mechanism of Asclepiads. It is present both in the Periplocoideae and in the Cynanchoideae. In these sub-families, it consists of the three parts which are corpuscular, pollinia or pollen and two caudicles. These are the structures of the attachment to stigma. Pollen carrier encloses the pollen grains. Caudicles are connective to attach the pollen mass with corpuscular.

Therefore option C is most suitable.

Option C is correct.

  1. Fusion of two germ cells

  2. Fusion of two gametic nuclei

  3. Fusion of a somatic cell and a reproductive cell

  4. Fusion of two somatic cells


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Karyogamy is the final step that is conducting the process of fusing two haploid eukaryotic cells together. It then refers specifically to the fusion of the two nuclei. For its occurrence, the cell membrane and cytoplasm of each cell must fuse by the process termed as plasmogamy. It is a common feature of all diploid organisms undergoing sexual reproduction.
