          c. solanaceae      d. poaceae
                                     


                                     







                      Hints and Solutions
1. b. In mitotic anaphase sister chromatids of the chromosomes separate.      2. b. Fragmentation, hormogonia, akinetes, and heterosis are the mode of reproduction in nostoc 
3. a. endosperm in gymnosperm is haploid because it forms before fertilization but that of angiosperm is triploid because it forms after fertilization.       
4. a. the capsule has chlorophyll (in its apophasis) , sterile columella, peristome (for dispersal), etc.        
5. a. syngenesious stamen = only anthers fused
Adelphous stamen = only filaments fused e.g. Diadelphous*(9+1) stamens of Papilionaceae             
6. a. A gametophyte with archegonia ( upper ) and antheridia (lower )  protonima= filamentous gives moss gametophyte             
7. C. Endarch / centrifugal – protoxylem towards pericycle, that of root – exarch / centripetal # Exarch – protoxylem towards pericycle and metaxylem towards pith region.                           
8. a. the red color is completely dominant, the F2 generation is 3 red: 2 white color as in mirabilis gives pink colored flowers in F1 and red:pink: white =1:2:1 in F2.         
9. a. total stem parasites = Cuscuta , partial stem parasite = Loranthus , Viscum # total root parasite = rafflesia , blanopara, striga                    
10 . b. zygospore of spirogyra is 3 layered neck canal cell of Marchantia is haploid nick canel cell of fern is single and binucleated. 
11.b. 
12. b. Helianthus anus = sunflower – of Asteraceae/ Compositae
