1. When a person is suffering from severe cold, he or she cannot 1
(a) differentiate the taste of an apple from that of an ice cream.
(b) differentiate the smell and taste forever.
(c) differentiate red light from green light
(d) differentiate a hot object from a cold object.
2. The growth of tendril in pea plants is due to 1
(a) effect of light
(b) effect of gravity
(c) rapid cell divisions in tendrillar cells that are away from the support
(d) rapid cell divisions in tendrillar cells in contact with the support
Question No.3 is case-based/data -based questions with 3 sub-parts.
Internal choice is provided in one of these sub-parts.
3. Nastic movements in plants are not directional movements. They are not
dependent on the stimulus and are growth independent. For example,
the leaves of a touch me not plant (Mimosa pudica), fold up immediately
when touched. These kinds of changes occur due to the changes in the
amount of water in the leaves. Depending on the
quantity, they either swell up or shrink. Plant hormones or
phytohormones are responsible for the control and coordination of plants.
There are diverse types of hormones which affect the growth of a plant.
Phytohormones are chemical compounds which are released by
stimulated cells. These hormones are diffused around the plant cells.
They have a role in the cell division, cell enlargement, cell differentiation,
fruit growth, falling of leaves, ripening of fruits, ageing of plants etc.
