Assertion (A): | The presence of pulvini at the base of the leaf in some plants allows for leaf movement. |
Reason (R): | Pulvini are swellings at the leaf base containing flexible cells that change shape in response to environmental stimuli. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |

1. | Fibrous roots are generally formed by monocots. |
2. | Adventitious roots are modified for mechanical support. |
3. | Tap roots are typically found in dicots and are modified for food storage. |
4. | All roots grow underground. |
Assertion (A): | Rhizophora, a mangrove plant, has pneumatophores that emerge above the water level. |
Reason (R): | Pneumatophores help in gaseous exchange and support the plant in anaerobic soil conditions. |
