Sample questions

1. What is the basic unit of life in plants?

   1. Cell
   2. Tissue
   3. Organ
   4. System
   Show answer

   Answer: A. Cell

   The basic unit of life for all living organisms, including plants, is the cell.

2. Which type of plant tissue is specialized in the transport of water?

   1. Phloem
   2. Xylem
   3. Sclerenchyma
   4. Parenchyma
   Show answer

   Answer: B. Xylem

   Xylem is the tissue responsible for transporting water and nutrients from the roots to other parts of the plant.

3. What is the role of collenchyma in plants?

   1. Storage of nutrients
   2. Transport of water
   3. Support for growing parts
   4. Photosynthesis
   Show answer

   Answer: C. Support for growing parts

   Collenchyma provides flexible support to the growing parts of the plant.

4. The primary function of guard cells is to:

   1. Transport nutrients
   2. Regulate gas exchange
   3. Store water
   4. Provide support
   Show answer

   Answer: B. Regulate gas exchange

   Guard cells control the opening and closing of stomata, regulating gas exchange and transpiration in plants.

5. The process of secondary growth is primarily associated with:

   1. Meristematic tissue
   2. Parenchyma
   3. Xylem
   4. Phloem
   Show answer

   Answer: A. Meristematic tissue

   Secondary growth in plants occurs mainly in the vascular cambium, a type of meristematic tissue, leading to an increase in the thickness of stems and roots.
