CHAPTER : TRANSPORT IN PLANTS

1. What is condition for pure water having zero water 10. In the given diagram identify the correct
potential? labelling for A to D
1) Standard temperature 2) No pressure
3) At 1atm pressure 4) Only (1) and (2)
2. Where poring proteins are present?
1) Outer membrane of plastids
2) Inner membrane of mitochondria
3) Inner membrane of some bacteria
4) Outer membrane of ribosomes
3. Guttation occurs due to
(1) Turgor pressure (2) Root pressure 1) A–Cortex, B–Symplastic path, C–
(3) Osmotic pressure (4) DPD Endodermis, D–Casparian strip
4. The chief sinks for the mineral elements in plants 2) A–Apoplastic path, B–Cortex, C–Casparian
are strip, D–Endodermis
3) A–Symplastic path, B–Cortex, C–Casparian
(1) apical and lateral meristems strip, D–Endodermis
(2) young leaves, developing flowers 4) A–Endodermis, B–Cortex, C–Symplastic
(3) fruits, seeds, and the storage organs path, D–Casparian strip
(4) all of these 11. During translocation of food
5. The form of sugar transported through phloem is 1) ATP required during both loading and
(1) glucose (2) fructose unloading.
2) ATP required only during loading
(3) sucrose (4) ribose
3) ATP required only during unloading
6. Which of the following is an example of imbibition? 4) ATP release during unloading
(1) uptake of water by root hair 12. What occupies the space between the cell wall
(2) exchange of gases in stomata and the shrunken protoplast in the plasmolysed
(3) swelling of seed when put in soil cell?
(4) opening of stomata 1) Hypotonic solution 2) Hypertonic solution
3) Isotonic solution 4) Dilute solution
7. Grapes immersed in water would shrink if
13. The rupture and fractionation do not usually
(1) water contains salts occur in the water column in vessel/tracheids
(2) water contains starch during the ascent of sap because of
(3) water is cold (4) water is hot 1.Weak gravitational pull
8. In the following diagram, If the TP of cell 'D' 2.Transpiration pull 3. Lignified thick walls
decreases to 6, what would be the direction of water 4.Cohesion and adhesion
flow? 14. Transpiration and root pressure cause water to
rise in plants by
1) pushing and pulling it, respectively
2) pulling it upward
3) pulling and pushing it , respectively
4) Pushing it upward
15. The values of osmotic potential ( ) and

pressure potential of cells A,B,C and D are

1) Cell 'D' actively absorb water from all the given below.
other cells Identify the correct sequence that shows the path
2) Water moves to all the other cells from cell ‘D’ of movement of water from among the following.
3) No movement of water occurs Cell
4) Water moves into the cell 'D' from all the
other cells A -1.0 0.5
9. In a girdled plant B -0.6 0.3
1) The root dies first C -1.2 0.6
2) The shoot and root die together D -0.8 0.4
3) Neither root nor shoot will die 1) D C A B 2) B D A C
4) The shoot dies first
3) B C D A 4) C B A D
