A. Lateral meristem
B. Apical meristem
C. Intercalary meristem
D. Cork cambium
Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: B
Apical meristem is located at the tips of roots and shoots and is responsible for the primary growth of plants.
Q2
Easy
Which plant tissue is primarily responsible for photosynthesis?
A. Xylem
B. Phloem
C. Parenchyma
D. Sclerenchyma
Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: C
Parenchyma cells, particularly those in the leaves, are the primary sites for photosynthesis due to their chloroplasts.
Q3
Easy
Which type of connective tissue in plants provides strength and support?
A. Parenchyma
B. Collenchyma
C. Sclerenchyma
D. Meristematic
Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: C
Sclerenchyma provides mechanical support and strength to various parts of the plant due to its thick cell walls.
Q4
Medium
Which tissue is primarily involved in the transport of water in plants?
A. Phloem
B. Xylem
C. Cortex
D. Parenchyma
Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: B
Xylem is responsible for the conduction of water and minerals from roots to other parts of the plant.
Q5
Medium
What is the main function of phloem in plants?
A. Support
B. Water transport
C. Nutrient transport
D. Storage
Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: C
Phloem transports organic nutrients, particularly sucrose, throughout the plant.
Q6
Medium
Which of the following is a characteristic of collenchyma tissue?
A. Dead at maturity
B. Flexible yet supportive
C. Transports water
D. Stores starch
Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: B
Collenchyma provides support while remaining flexible, especially in young stems and leaves.
Q7
Medium
Which type of sclerenchyma cell is known for its fiber-like structure?
A. Parenchyma
B. Tracheids
C. Fibers
D. Sieve cells
Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: C
Sclerenchyma fibers are elongated cells that provide strong support and protection.
Q8
Hard
Which of the following tissues in flowering plants is primarily responsible for the transport of water and minerals?
A. Phloem
B. Xylem
C. Parenchyma
D. Sclerenchyma
Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: B
Xylem is specialized for transporting water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant, while phloem transports sugars.
Q9
Hard
Which of the following statements is true regarding sclerenchyma tissue?
A. It is living at maturity.
B. It provides flexibility to the plant.
C. It is primarily composed of thick-walled cells.
D. It is responsible for photosynthesis.
Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: C
Sclerenchyma consists of dead cells with thick, lignified walls, providing structural support.
Q10
Hard
In which type of plant tissue would you find cells that are typically involved in storage?
A. Xylem
B. Phloem
C. Parenchyma
D. Collenchyma
Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: C
Parenchyma cells are often involved in storage, photosynthesis, and tissue repair.
