1 65 Morphology of Flowering Plants 1. Fruit of Groundnut is [1988] (a) Legume (b) Caryopsis (c) Berry (d) Nut Legume is a dehiscent dry fruit produced from a monocarpellary superior ovary. Caryopsis is dry and one seeded fruit which developed from a superior monocarpellary ovary. In this the pericarp is closed and fused with seed coat. It is a characteristics of family Poaceae. 2. Micropyle of seed is involved in the passage of [1988] (a) male gamete (b) pollen tube (c) water (d) gases Micropyle of seed performs the function of absorbing water during germination. 3. Perisperm is [1988, 89] (a) remnant of endosperm (b) persistent nucellus (c) peripheral part of endosperm (d) disintegrated secondary nucleus Normally endosperm formation is accompanied by degeneration of nucellus. Persistent nucellus is termed as perisperm. The dust-like seeds of orchids have no endosperm. Orchid seedlings are mycoheterotrophic in their early development. In some other species, such as coffee, the endosperm also does not develop. Instead the nucellus produces a nutritive tissue termed perisperm. 4. Mango juice is got from [1989, 2002, 04] (a) epicarp (b) mesocarp (c) endocarp (d) pericarp and thalamus Mesocarp is the edible part of Mangifera indica (Mango). 5. Tomato and Tobacco both belong to the family Solanaceae. Solanaceae has some identifying characteristicsbicarpellary syncarpous superior ovary, axile plancentation, fruit is berry or capsule. 6. New Banana plants develop from [1990] (a) rhizome (b) sucker (c) stolon (d) seed Each pseudostem produces a single bunch of bananas, before dying and being replaced by a new pseudostem. The base of the plant is a rhizome (known as a corm). Corms are perennial, with a productive lifespan of 15 years or more. Cultivated bananas are parthenocarpic, which makes them sterile and unable to produce viable seeds. Lacking seeds, another form of propagation is required. This involves removing and transplanting part of the underground stem (called a corm). Usually this is done by carefully removing a sucker with some roots intact. 7. In Groundnut the food/oil reserve is present in [1990] (a) epicarp (b) mesocarp (c) endosperm (d) cotyledons Groundnut is economically important plant as edible oil is obtained from the cotyledons. Peanuts are a rich source of protein (roughly 30 grams per cup after roasting) and Monounsaturated fat. Recent research on peanuts and nuts in general has found anti-oxidants and other chemicals that may provide health benefits. Peanuts are a significant source of resveratrol, a chemical studied for potential anti-aging effects. 8. Tegmen develops from [1990] (a) funiculus
2 66 (b) chalaza (c) inner integument (d) outer integument In seeds developing from bitegmic ovules the seed coat has two layers outer testa and inner tegmen. Testa develops from outer integument whereas tegmen develops from inner integument. 9. Vivipary is characteristic of [1990] (a) mesophytes (b) xerophytes (c) hygrophytes (d) halophytes Special type of seed germination is characteristic of halophytes growing in saline conditions is vivipary. The seed germination occurs inside the fruit while it is attached to the parent plant. 10. A family delimited by head type of inflorescence is [1990] (a) Fabaceae (b) Asteraceae (c) Solanaceae (d) Liliaceae Asteraceae possesses head or capitulum inflorescence which is racemose and is surrounded by an involucre of bracts. 11. Velamen is found in [1991] (a) roots of Screwpine (b) aerial and terrestrial roots of orchids (c) leaves of Ficus elastica (d) aerial roots of orchids Aerial roots of orchids hang freely in the air and absorb moisture with the help of special sponge like tissue called velamen. 12. Vegetative reproduction of Agave occurs through [1991] (a) rhizome (b) stolon (c) bulbils (d) sucker Agave species are popular ornamental plants. Each rosette is monocarpic and grows slowly to flower only once. During flowering a tall stem or mast grows from the center of the leaf rosette and bears a large number of shortly tubular flowers. After development of fruit the original plant dies, but suckers are frequently produced from the base of the stem which become new plants. It is a common misconception that Agaves are a cactus. 13. Syngenesious condition is found in [1991] (a) Asteraceae (b) Labiate (c) Solanaceae (d) Fabaceae When stamens are united by their anthers and filaments are free the condition is called syngenesious. It is found in family Asteraceae (Compositae). The condition is an adaptation for entomophily. 14. Fruit of Mangifera indica is [1991] (a) Berry (b) Drupe (c) Capsule (d) Siliqua Drupe is a fleshy one seeded, indehiscent fruit eg. Mangifera indica. 15. In Groundnut the food/oil reserve is present in [1990] (a) epicarp (b) mesocarp (c) endosperm (d) cotyledons Groundnut is economically important plant as edible oil is obtained from the cotyledons. Peanuts are a rich source of protein (roughly 30 grams per cup after roasting) and Monounsaturated fat. Recent research on peanuts and nuts in general has found anti-oxidants and other chemicals that may provide health benefits. Peanuts are a significant source of
3 67 resveratrol, a chemical studied for potential anti-aging effects. 16. Botanical name of Cauliflower is [1991] (a) Brassica oleracea var. capitata (b) Brassica campesteris (c) Brassica oleracea var. botrytis (d) Brassica oleracea var. gemmifera Cauliflower has the scientific name Brassica oleracea belonging to the variety botrytis. 17. Vivipary is [1992] (a) seed germination with subterranean cotyledons (b) seed germination with epiterranean cotyledons (c) fruit development without pollination (d) seed germination inside the fruit while attached to the plant Vivipary germination is the characteristic mode of seed germination in Rhizophora (Mangrove). 18. Germination of seed within fruit is [1992] (a) ovipary (b) vivipary (c) hypogeal (d) epigeal Vivipary 19. Epipetalous stamens with free filaments and fused anthers occur in [1991, 92] (a) Asteraceae (b) Solanaceae (c) Liliaceae (d) Poaceae Asteraceae possess five stamens with free filaments but anthers united forming a tube around the style (syngenesious). 20.

Hypanthodium is [1994] (a) thalamus (b) fruit (c) inflorescence (d) ovary Hypanthodium is a special kind of inflorescence where the receptacle is usually fleshy and flash-shaped. e.g. Ficus. 24. Buttress roots are found in [1995] (a) sorghum (b) banyan (c) Terminalia (d) Pandanus Buttress roots are asymmetrically thickened prop roots found at the base of certain trees. They render additional mechanical support to the trees. e.g. Salmalia, Terminalia etc. 25. Tetradynamous stamens are found in family [1995, 01] (a) Malvaceae (b) Solanaceae (c) Cruciferae (d) Liliaceae

Tetradynamous condition is characteristic of this family. 26. Which one of the following is a true fruit? (a) Apple (b) Pear (c) Cashew nut (d) Coconut The fruit is a mature or ripened ovary. When a fruit develops exclusively from the ovary, it is said to be true fruit. When in addition to the ovary, some other floral part also participates in the formation of fruits, then it is known as false fruit. Apple, pear, cashewnut, mulberry etc. are all false fruits. 27. Which part of the coconut produces coir? (a) Seed coat (b) Mesocarp (c) Epicarp (d) Pericarp. Coir (Etymological origin: from Tamil and Malayalam - kayar - cord) is a coarse fibre extracted from the fibrous outer shell of a coconut. Coir fibres are found between the husk and the outer shell of a coconut. The individual fibre cells are narrow and hollow, with thick walls made of cellulose. They are pale when immature but later become hardened and yellowed as a layer of lignin is deposited on their walls. 28.

The aleurone layer in maize grain is specially rich in [2003] (a) auxins (b) proteins (c) starch (d) lipids The aleurone layer in maize grain is specially rich in proteins. Aleurone (from Greek aleuron, flour) is a protein found in the endosperm of many seeds. It forms the outermost layer of the seed coat in some grains. During seed germination, hydrolysis in the seed causes the aleurone cells to break down into amino acids. Once triggered by hormones released from the embryo the aleurone synthesises enzymes in order to break down the starchy endosperm supplying sugars to drive the growth of roots and the acrospire. Aleurones can have two different morphological features, Homogenous and Heterogenous. The homogenous aleurone is consisted of similar protein bodies (e.g. Phaseolus vulgaris) while the heterogenous aleurone consisted different shape and type of proteins covered with a membrane (e.g. Ricinus communis). 47.
