Q1. (C)
In a very young ovule, a single hypodermal cell is differentiated as the archesporium. T his
archesporium cell becomes megaspore mother cell. T he megaspore mother cell now undergoes
meiosis or reduction division and a linear row of four haploid megaspore cells (linear tetrad) is
formed. Of the linear tetrad of megaspores, the lowermost cell enlarges and becomes the
functional megaspore, while the three on top degenerate. T he functional megaspore now
develops into the female gametophyte or the embryo sac.

Q16. (A)
Cleistogamous flowers do not open at all. As the flowers never open geitonogamy and xenogamy
is prevented, only autogamy (self-pollination) occurs.

Q19. (A)
Q20. (B)
Q21. (B)
Honey is made from nectar through a process of regurgitation and evaporation. Honey bees
transform saccharides (carbohydrates) into honey by regurgitating it a number of times, until it is
partially digested. T he bees do the regurgitation and digestion as a group. After the last
regurgitation, the aqueous solution is still high in water, the process continuous by evaporation of
much of the water and enzymatic transformation. Honey is produced by bees as a food source.
Q22. (D )
T he cells between middle layer and microsporogenous cells develop into tapetum. Tapetum plays
an important role in pollen development by providing nutrition. It is a part of anther wall.
Q23. (C)
Each embryo-sac has a three-celled egg apparatus – one egg cell and two synergids, three
antipodal cells and two polar nuclei.
Q24. (C)
Q25. (C)
Pollen grains of any species can germinate on the stigma of any flower of any species.
Q26. (B)
Apomixis is a reproductive process which does not involve gametic fusion. In apomictic flowering
plants there is no fertilization and embryos develop simply by the division of a cell of an ovule.
Q27. (D )
Apogamy is the formation of sporophyte directly from gametophyte without gamete formation
and gametic fusion. T he point at which funicle touches the ovule is known as hilum. A raphe is
formed by the fusion of funiculus with the body of ovule.
Q28. (D )
Q29. (C)
Fibrous thickenings and hygroscopic nature of endothecium cells help in the dehiscene of anther
at maturity.
Q30. (A)
Q31. (A)
G eitonogamy involves transfer of pollen from one flower of a plant to the stigma of another
flower of the same plant. As the pollen has to move from one flower to another flower, it require a
pollinating agent. Yet it is genetically similar to autogamy, as both the flowers of the plant, share
the same genotype of the plant.
Q32. (A)
A tetralocular anther consists of four pollen chambers.
Since there are 1280 microspores in the anther, No. of microspores in each chamber

1 microspore mother cell (2n) undergoes meiosis to form four haploid microspores (n).
No. of microspore mother cells (MMCs) needed to produce 320 microspores
80 MMCs are present in each chamber.

Q34. (A)
Q35. (D )
Q36. (C)
Q37. (D )
Q38. (C)
D ioecious plants are those plants that bear male and female flowers separately. Emasculation is
done to prevent self pollination by removing the anthers. T his is done in case of monoecious
flowers (where male and female sex organs are borne on the same flower).
