Match List I with List II
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
| List I (Outbreeding device) | List II (example) |
|---|---|
| (A). Unisexuality | (I). Gloriosa |
| (B). Protandry | (II). Mulberry |
| (C). Protogyny | (III). Apple |
| (D). Prepotency | (IV). Disc florets of sunflower |
Options
- A(A) - (I), (B) - (II), (C) - (III), (D) - (IV)
- B(A) - (II), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (III)
- C(A) - (I), (B) - (II), (C) - (IV), (D) - (III)
- D(A) - (III), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (II)
Correct answer
B. (A) - (II), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (III)
Step-by-step solution
Unisexuality is the condition where flowers are either male or female. Mulberry is an example of a plant with unisexual flowers.
Protandry is a condition where the anthers mature earlier than the stigma of the same flower. Disc florets of sunflower exhibit protandry.
Protogyny is a condition where the stigma matures earlier than the anthers. Gloriosa is an example of a plant exhibiting protogyny.
Prepotency is the phenomenon where pollen from a different flower germinates faster on the stigma than pollen from the same flower. Apple is an example of prepotency.
Therefore, the correct matching is (A) - (II), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (III).
Answer: (A) - (II), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (III)
