NEETBotanyPlant - Growth and Development
Growth Types and Their Characteristics Description A. Arithmetic Growth 1. Both progeny cells retain the ability to divide after mitosis. B. Geometrical Growth 2. Only one daughter cell continues to divide, and the other differentiates and matures. C. Lag Phase 3. The initial growth phase where growth is slow. D. Stationary Phase 4. Growth slows down due to limited nutrient supply.
Options
- AA - 2, B - 1, C - 3, D - 4
- BA - 1, B - 2, C - 4, D - 3
- CA - 3, B - 4, C - 1, D - 2
- DA - 2, B - 1, C - 4, D - 3
Correct answer
A. A - 2, B - 1, C - 3, D - 4
Step-by-step solution
A - 2: In arithmetic growth, only one daughter cell continues to divide, while the other differentiates and matures. B - 1: In geometrical growth, both progeny cells retain the ability to divide after mitotic cell division. C - 3: The lag phase is the initial growth phase where growth is slow. D - 4: The stationary phase is when growth slows down due to limited nutrient supply.
