✓

Answer

S.No.	Monocotyledon stem	Dicotyledon stem
1.	These have the epidermis of sclerenchyma.	These have usually parenchyma.
2.	The cortex is absent, in its place there is paren- chyma ground tissue.	The cortex is present, ground tissue absent.
3.	Endodermis, pericycle, medullary rays and pith are absent.	Endodermis, pericycle, medullary rays and pith are present.
4.	Vascular bundles are scattered throughout the ground tissue.	Vascular bundles are arranged in a ring inside the pericycle.

Sarcodines are unicellular/jelly-like protozoa found in fresh or sea water and in moist soil. Their body lacks a periplast. Therefore, they may be naked or covered by a calcareous shell. They usually lack flagella and have temporary protoplasmic outgrowths called pseudopodia. These pseudopodia or false feet help in movement and capturing prey. They include free-living forms such as Amoeba or parasitic forms such as Entamoeba. Zoo flagellates ciliates and I sporozoans are other groups of protozoan protists. They are all unicellular and heterotrophic. They may be holozoic, saprobic or parasitic.

Bryophyta (bryophytes) A division of plants which for some authors includes the mosses (Musci) and liverworts (Hepaticae), but is now often taken to include only the mosses; liverworts having been assigned divisional status as Hepatophyta. Bryophytes differ from algae in that the multicellular gametangium is surrounded by a protective jacket of sterile cells; gametangia of algae are usually unicellular and never have a protective jacket of sterile cells. Although bryophytes lack differentiated water-conducting vessels, and rely largely or entirely on water absorbed from rain falling on the plants, or from a moist atmosphere, some larger species may have simple water-conducting cells. They lack true roots, but possess root-like rhizoids which anchor them to a substrate and which can absorb water and minerals. The plants all show a heteromorphic alternation of generations, with a green vegetative gametophyte (the familiar moss or liverwort plant) and a sporophyte which typically takes the form of a (usually stalked) capsule and which is partially or wholly parasitic on the gametophyte. Most bryophytes are land plants and are found worldwide in a range of habitats. They are known from Devonian rocks, but there is no evidence to link them with either the green algae or the more advanced pteridophytes.

(1) A characteristic feature of bryophytes is:
(a) a dominant and parasitic sporophyte
(b) a dominant and spore-producing gametophyte
(c) a small sporophyte phase, which is dependent on the gametophyte
(d) sporophytes stay for a longer duration.

(2) Find the true statement about bryophytes:
(a) they have chloroplasts
(b) they have archegonia
(c) they are thalloid
(d) all of the above.

(3) Among the following which is not characteristics feature of bryophyte:
(a) Motile sperms
(b) Presence of archegonium
(c) Water essential for fertilization
(d) Independent sporophyte

(4) Bryophytes differ from pteridophytes in:
(a) Swimming antherozoids
(b) An independent gametophyte
(c) Archegonia
(d) Lack of vascular tissue

(5) In bryophytes, antherozoids are-
(a) Biflagellate
(b) Multiflagellate
(c) Sometimes biflagellate and sometimes multiflagellate.
(d) Biflagellate in a few species and multiflagellate in the rest.

Muscles and nerve fibers allow a person to move their body and enable the internal
organs to function. There are more than 600 muscles in the human body. A kind of
elastic tissue makes up each muscle, which consists of thousands, or tens of thousands,
of small muscle fibers. Each fiber comprises many tiny strands called fibrils.
Impulses from nerve cells control the contraction of each muscle fiber. A muscle’s
strength depends mainly on how many fibers are present.

(1). Major protein constituent of muscle fibre is
(a)Actin (b)Tropomyosin (c)Myosin (d)Calnexin

(2).Myofibrils show dark and light band in
(a) cardiac muscle
(b) Striped muscle
(c) cardiac muscle and unstriated muscle
(d) cardiac muscle and striped muscle

(3). Unstriped muscle present in the
(a) Intestinal muscle (b) Leg muscle (c) Muscle of fore limb (d) Heart muscle

(4). Which of the following muscle gets into fatigue very early
(a) Skeletal muscle (b) Smooth muscle (c) Cardiac muscle (d) All the above

(5). The structural and functional unit of the striated muscle fibre is called
(a) Sarcolemma (b) Sarcomere (c) Sarcoplasm (d) Myofibril

Various parts of the plant such as stems leaves, and even fruits are modified into underground parts to perform various functions such as stems, leaves, and even fruits.
The stems in ginger and banana are underground and swollen due to storage of food. They are called rhizome. Rhizome of ginger is a modification of stem because it bears nodes, internodes, terminal buds, scaly leaves and buds, which give rise to aerial shoots. It is not a root because root does not have nodes and internodes. Also, rhizome does not perform the function of roots i.e. anchorage and absorption, rather it serve as reservoir for storage of food. Similarly, corm is an underground stem in Colocasia (jimikand) The tips of the underground stem in potato become swollen due to accumulation of food and forms tuber.

i. Observe the given flow chart and mention what are the four types of Underground stem modification also mention one example of each. (1)
ii. Ginger is an underground stem but why it is distinguished from a root? (1)
iii. Why do the tips of modified stems in potatoes become swollen? (2)
