Question

Match the following: 

• A. I-E, II-B, III-C, IV-A
• B. I-E, II-C, III-B, IV-A
• C. I-D, II-C, III-B, IV-A
• D. I-D, II-B, III-C, IV-E

Hint:

To solve matching questions, focus on the specific tissues and their roles in plant anatomy to make the correct associations.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

To solve the problem, we need to correctly match the items from List A with the corresponding items in List B.

1. Analyzing List A and List B:
- List A:

• I. Petiole of leaf
• II. Leaves of tea
• III. Flax
• IV. Grasses

- List B:

• A. Intercalary meristem
• B. Phloem fibres
• C. Sclerenchyma
• D. Collenchyma
• E. Parenchyma

 

2. Understanding the terms:
Petiole of leaf: The petiole is associated with Intercalary meristem (A) as it helps in the growth of leaves and stems.
Leaves of tea: These are rich in Phloem fibres (B), which are responsible for the transport of nutrients.
Flax: Flax contains Sclerenchyma (C), a type of tissue that provides strength and support.
Grasses: Collenchyma (D) is present in grasses, providing support to young growing tissues.

3. Analyzing the Correct Match:
The correct matching of items is as follows:
I-E: Petiole of leaf -> Parenchyma
II-B: Leaves of tea -> Phloem fibres
III-C: Flax -> Sclerenchyma
IV-A: Grasses -> Intercalary meristem

Final Answer:
The correct option is (C) I-D, II-C, III-B, IV-A.
