Grass leaves curl inwards during very dry weather. Select the most appropriate reason from the following :
1. Tyloses in vessels
2. Closure of stomata
3. Flaccidity of bulliform cells
4. Shrinkage of air spaces in spongy mesophyll
Large, empty colourless cells of the adaxial epidermis along the veins of grass leaves are:
1. | Lenticels | 2. | Guard cells |
3. | Bundle sheath cells | 4. | Bulliform cells |
1. | near similar sizes of vascular bundles, including main veins, as seen in vertical sections of the leaves. |
2. | near similar sizes of vascular bundles, except in main veins, as seen in vertical sections of the leaves. |
3. | large sizes of vascular bundles in mid rib and smaller in veins, as seen in vertical sections of the leaves. |
4. | smaller sizes of vascular bundles in mid rib and larger in veins, as seen in vertical sections of the leaves. |
1. | Isobilateral (Monocotyledonous) Leaf; where A is xylem and B is phloem |
2. | Isobilateral (Monocotyledonous) Leaf; where A is phloem and B is xylem |
3. | Dorsiventral (Dicotyledonous) Leaf; where A is xylem and B is phloem |
4. | Dorsiventral (Dicotyledonous) Leaf; where A is phloem and B is xylem |
