Question 21. Plants that tend spread on the ground because of its weak stem are called ________ .
  1.    climbers
  2.    creepers
  3.    trees
  4.    herbs
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> creepers
:
B
Creepers are plants that have weak stems because of which they spread on the ground. Eg: Pumpkin and watermelon.
Climbers, like creepers, have a weak stem but they take support of structures like poles and trees and climb on them unlike creepers.
Trees are very tall. They have brown, thick and hard stem.
Plants with green and tender stems are called herbs.
Question 22. When the veins are net-like and present on both sides of the midrib, the venation is called _______ .
  1.    reticulate   
  2.    parallel
  3.    grid
  4.    fibrous   
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> reticulate   
:
A
The arrangement of veins on the lamina of aleaf is called venation. When this arrangement is net or mesh-like on both sides of the midrib, the venation is called reticulate. If the veins are arranged parallely to each other, then the venation is called parallel venation.
When The Veins Are Net-like And Present on Both Sides Of Th...
Question 23. Structures inside the ovary are called as ________ .
  1.    carpels   
  2.    sepals  
  3.    stamens  
  4.    ovules   
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> ovules   
:
D
Ovules are small bead like structures inside the ovary of flower. Ovules contain the female gamete or the egg cell. These structures develop into the seeds after fertilization. Carpel is the female reproductive part of a flower. Stamen is male reproductive part of a flower. Sepals protect the bud of a flower.
Question 24. Which of the following sets contain only the parts of a pistil ?
  1.    Stigma, style, ovary
  2.    Stigma, style, anther
  3.    Anther, filament, ovary
  4.    Filament, stigma, style
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> Stigma, style, ovary
:
A
Pistil is the female reproductory part of a plant. Itincludes stigma, style and ovary. Ovules are structures present inside the ovary which contains the female gametes or the egg cells. Pollen grains land on the stigma during pollination. Stigma is connected to the ovary by the style.
Question 25. Tomato plant is a type of _________ .
  1.    herb  
  2.    shrub  
  3.    tree 
  4.    climber
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> herb  
:
A
Plants with green and tender stems are calledherbs. They are usually short and they do not have many branches.
Some plants develop branches near the base of stem. The stem is hard but not very thick. Such plants are called shrubs.
Some plants are very tall and have hard and thick stem. The stems have branches in the upper part, much above the ground. Such plants are called trees.
Climbers have weak stem and they take support and climb up.
Question 26. Which of the following attaches the leaf to the stem?
  1.    Lamina
  2.    Midrib
  3.    Veins
  4.    Petiole
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> Petiole
:
D
The petiole is the stalk that connects leaf to the stem.
Lamina is the broad part of the leaf with venation.
The central vein in lamina is called the midrib.
Which Of The Following Attaches The Leaf To The Stem?
Question 27. Tall plants with hard and thick brown stems are known as ________ .
  1.    shrub
  2.    herb
  3.    trees
  4.    climbers
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> trees
:
C
Trees are tall plants with hard and thick brown stem. The stems have branches much above the ground. Eg: Mango tree.
Shrubs areplants with branches near the base of stem. The stem is hard but not very thick. Eg: Rose plant.
Plants with green and tender stems are called herbs. They are usually short and may not have many branches. Eg: Tomato.
Climbers have very weak stem. They take support and climb up other structures. Eg: Money plant.
Question 28. The innermost part of a flower is
  1.    petal
  2.    sepal
  3.    ovary
  4.    ovule
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> ovule
:
D
Pistil is the innermost part of the flower. It is also the female reproductive part. Stigma, style and ovary are the parts of a pistil. The ovary contains ovule. Ovule contains the female gametes or the egg cells.
Question 29. The plant shown in the image contains ________ system.
The Plant Shown In The Image Contains ________ System.
  1.    fibrous root
  2.    tap root
  3.    tip root
  4.    flat root
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> fibrous root
:
A

  1.    lamina
  2.    petiole
  3.    sepal
  4.    midrib
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> midrib
