Solution

The correct option is A 1-d, 2-c, 3-e, 4-b, 5-a
1. Totipotency is the capability of developing from a small explant into a complete organism.
2. Micropropagation is the process of multiplying the plant material to produce a large number of plants by modern plant tissue culture techniques.
3. Somaclonal is the plant formed by plant tissue culture methods in which the plant is genetically identical to the original plant.
4. Somatic hybrid is produced by the fusion of two different protoplasts of two different plants either by micropropagations or plant tissue culture.
5. Biofortification is the process of breeding to increase the nutrient value of the plants.
