Question #1
The meristematic tissue responsible for the increase in the length of the plant is:
A. Apical meristem
B. Intercalary meristem
C. Both B and C
D. Lateral meristem

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Apical meristems at root and shoot tips contribute to primary growth (increase in length). Intercalary meristems, located at nodes and leaf bases, also aid in elongation, especially in grasses. Lateral meristems (vascular cambium, cork cambium) cause secondary growth (increase in girth). So both apical and intercalary meristems are responsible for length increase.

Question #2
In a monohybrid cross between two heterozygous pea plants (Tt), the phenotypic ratio of tall to dwarf in the offspring is expected to be:
A. 1:1
B. 1:2:1
C. 9:3:3:1
D. 3:1

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
When both parents are heterozygous (Tt × Tt), the offspring genotypes are TT (25%), Tt (50%), and tt (25%). Since tall (T) is dominant over dwarf (t), both TT and Tt are tall, resulting in 3 tall : 1 dwarf phenotypic ratio. The genotypic ratio is 1:2:1. 9:3:3:1 is the dihybrid phenotypic ratio. 1:1 ratio is seen in test cross (Tt × tt).

Question #3
Which organelle is called the 'kitchen of the cell'?
A. Chloroplast
B. Mitochondria
C. Ribosome
D. Golgi apparatus

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Chloroplasts are the sites of photosynthesis in plant cells, converting solar energy into chemical energy (food). Hence they are called the kitchen of the cell. Mitochondria are the powerhouse, generating ATP; ribosomes are protein factories; Golgi apparatus is the packaging center.
