| Assertion (A): | Spraying sugarcane crops with gibberellins increase the yield by as much as 20 tonnes per acre. |
| Reason (R): | Sugarcane stores carbohydrates such as sugar in their stems. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
| 3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
| 4. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
In most seeds, the ratio of which of the following pair of PGRs determines whether the embryo remains dormant or germinates?
| 1. | ABA and GA | 2. | Auxin and Cytokinin |
| 3. | Auxin and GA | 4. | ABA and Cytokinin |
| Column A | Column B | ||
| 1. | Auxins | A. | Stimulate cell division and growth of lateral buds |
| 2. | Cytokinins | B. | Promote stem elongation and fruit growth |
| 3. | Gibberellins | C. | Promote cell enlargement and stem elongation |
| Statement I: | Cytokinins help to initiate rooting in stem cuttings during plant propagation. |
| Statement II: | In most cases, ABA acts as a synergist to Gibberellins. |
| 1. | Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect. |
| 2. | Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct. |
| 3. | Both Statement I and Statement II are correct. |
| 4. | Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect |
To promote stem elongation, gibberellins act in concert with:
| 1. | Auxins | 2. | Cytokinins |
| 3. | Ethylene | 4. | ABA |
