I: | is characteristic of living organism growing in a natural environment. |
II: | is typical for all cells, tissues and organs of a plant. |
I: | It is more important for plants than most animals. |
II: | Plants have open growth and development. |

I: | The process, by which exposure to cold renders plants competent to flower is called vernalization. |
II: | Even after vernalization, the plant must be subjected to a suitable photoperiod, usually long days. |
III: | Like photoperiod, vernalization is also perceived in leaves. |
IV: | In most biennial long day plants that form rosettes, gibberellins treatment can substitute for the cold requirement. |

I: | Auxin stimulates cell elongation by stimulating wall-loosening factors, such as expansins, to loosen cell walls. |
II: | When auxin and cytokinin are applied to callus, rooting can be generated with higher auxin to cytokinin ratios, shoot growth is induced by lower auxin to cytokinin ratios. |
III: | Auxin induces the formation and organization of phloem and xylem. |
IV: | In low concentrations, auxin can inhibit ethylene formation and transport of precursor in plants; however, high concentrations can induce the synthesis of ethylene. |
I: | The PGR is ABA. |
II: | Chemically, it is a terpene. |
III: | Seed germination is inhibited by it in antagonism with gibberellin. |
IV: | It is also produced in the roots in response to decreased soil water potential. |

Consider the given two statements:
I: Seeds of some species remain dormant, even if sown in a favourable space, until a specific environmental cue causes them to break dormancy.
II: Seeds of many desert plants, for example, germinate only after a substantial rainfall.
1. I is correct but II is incorrect.
2. Both I and II are correct and II explains I.
3. Both I and II are correct but II does not explain I.
4. I is incorrect but II is correct.
