Question 71.



What type of venation is observed in the following figure?
What Type Of Venation Is Observed In The Following Figure?


  1.     Parallel 
  2.     ​Reticulate
  3.     Grid
  4.     Square
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> Parallel 
:
A

Venation is the arrangement of veins and veinlets in the lamina of a leaf. It is of 2 types:


  Parallel venation
  Reticulate venation

In the given figure, veins are parallel to the midrib as well as to one another. This type of venation is known as parallel venation.


Question 72.


___________ is the colourful part of an open flower used to attract insects.


  1.     Petal
  2.     Stamen    
  3.     Pistil  
  4.     Anther    
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> Petal
:
A

Petals are the colourful parts of a flower. They help in attracting insects for pollination. Stamen is the male reproductive part of a flower and anther is a prt of it. Pistil is the female part of a flower.


Question 73.


Evaporation of excess water from aerial parts of a plant is called _________.


  1.     transpiration
  2.     respiration
  3.     photosynthesis
  4.     absorption
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> transpiration
:
A
 Transpiration is a process by which excess water is lost from aerial parts of the plants, mainly leaves. This creates a pressure with the help of which water moves up in the plants.
 Photosynthesis is the process through which green plants prepare their food in the presence of sunlight.
 Absorption is the process through which plant roots absorb water and minerals from the soil. 
 Respiration is a process by which energy is produced in living organisms.
Question 74.


______ is liberated as a byproduct in photosynthesis.


  1.     Water
  2.     Carbon dioxide
  3.     Oxygen
  4.     Nitrogen
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> Oxygen
:
C

Plants prepare their food by a process called photosynthesis. In this process, plants take in carbon dioxide and water and convert it into glucose and oxygen. The food or glucose is stored in different parts of the plant as starch while oxygen is liberated.


Question 75.


________ are types of plants which have branches near the base of the stem.


  1.     Creepers
  2.     Climbers
  3.     Herbs
  4.     Shrubs
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> Shrubs
:
D
  Plants with stem branching closer to the base of the stem are called shrubs. They also have a hard stem. Example: China rose.
  Creepers and climbers have weak stems. Creepers spread on the ground while climbers climb on a support.
   Herbs have green and tender stem.
Question 76.


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. It includes 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 77.


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 a leaf 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 78.


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 79.



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 80.


The swollen part of the pistil is known as ________ .


  1.     ovules 
  2.     petals   
  3.     ovary  
  4.     stamen
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> ovary  
:
C

The swollen part of the pistil is known as the ovary. Ovary contains the ovules which contain the female gametes or the egg cells. After fertilisation, ovaries develop into fruits and the ovules become seeds.The Swollen Part Of The Pistil Is Known As ________ .
