Transport of cytokinin in the plant body is Lateral Basipetal Acropetal On all sides None 2. Which of the following is the effect of a plant hormone, which is synthesised more in absence of light? Induces the dormancy of seeds Inhibits the development of seedless fruits Responsible for closing of stomata Length of intenodes increases None 3. Two different plants associated with discovery of two different phytohormones having common biosynthetic precursor exhibit one of the following characters eachI. Versatile anthers II. Compound spadix III. Pentalocular ovary IV. Trifoliate compound leaves I and IV II and IV I and III II and III None 4. Dr. F. Went noted that if coleoptile tips were removed and placed on agar for one hour, the agar would produce a bending when placed on one side of a freshly cut coleoptile stumps. Of what significance is this experiment. It is basis of quantitative determination of small amounts of growth promoting substances It made possible the isolation and exact identification of auxin It demonstrated polar movement of auxins It supports the hypothesis that IAA is auxin None 5. During seed germination, its stored food is mobilised by ABA Ethylene Gibberellin Cytokinin None 6. The cells derived from meristems differentiate and regain the capacity to divide by a phenomenon called Dedifferentiation Redifferentiation Differentiation Totipotency None 7. Which of the following plant function is not controlled by auxins? Growth Photoperiodism Photosynthesis Apical dominance None 8. Which statements are correct?𝑎- Cytokinins suppress the synthesis of chlorophyll𝑏- Auxins control apical dominance𝑐- Gibberellins promote shoot elongation𝑑- Abscisic acid enables seeds to with-stand desication. 𝑎 and 𝑐only 𝑏 and 𝑐 only 𝑏 , 𝑐 and 𝑑 only 𝑎 and 𝑏 only None 9. One hormone hastens the maturity period in juvenile conifers, a second hormone controls xylem differentiation while the third increases the tolerance of plants to various stresses. They are respectively Auxin, gibberellin and cytokinin Gibberellin, auxin, ABA Gibberellin, auxin, ethylene Gibberellin, auxin, cytokinin None 10. Period between formative phase and maturation phase of plant growth is Stationary phase Grand period of growth Lag phase Phase of elongation None 11. Abscisic acid is called stress hormone as it Promotes leaf fall Breaks seed dormancy Induces flowering Promotes stomatal closure None 12. Which is not a function of cytokinin? Delay is senescence Promoting bud dormancy Promoting stomatal opening Breaking seed dormancy None 13. Horizontal growth of seedlings, swelling of axis and apical hook formation in dicot seedlings is brought about by Auxins Kinetin Gibberellins Ethylene None 14. Which is not the effect of ethylene? Breaks seed and bud dormancy Promotes senescence and abscission of plant organs Helps to overcome apical dominance Brings about horizontal growth of seedlings None 15. Shedding of leaves, flowers and fruits due to change in hormone balance in plants is Senescence Photoperiodism Abscission Vernalisation None 16. Growth hormone that speeds up malting in brewery industry is Auxin Kinetin Ethylene Gibberellic acid None 17. Plant hormones used for inducing morphogenesis in plant tissue culture is Gibberellins ABA Cytokinins Ethylene None 18. Cytokinin is not found in Young fruits Shoot apex Mature fruits Root apex None 19. Cholodony and Went effect is due to Cytokinin GA IAA ABA None 20. Cytokinins which have specific effect in cytokinesis are modified forms of Cytosine Adenine Thiamine Guanine None Time's upTime is Up!
