Question

Match the following:
$$\begin{array}{cccc}& \text{Column I}& & \text{Column II}\\ \text{A.}& \text{Fertiliser}& i& \text{Chlorophyll}\\ \text{B.}& \text{Algae}& ii& \text{Red pigments}\\ \text{C.}& \text{Variegated leaves}& iii& \text{NPK}\end{array}$$

• A. A : i; B : ii; C : iii​
• B. A : iii; B : ii; C : i​
• C. A : i; B : iii; C : ii​
• D. A : iii; B : i; C : ii​

Answer 1

The correct option is D A : iii; B : i; C : ii​

• Fertilisers are inorganic salts made in factories and are rich in nutrients. One of the examples of fertiliser is NPK which is composed of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium.
• Algae contain chlorophyll​ and can perform photosynthesis.
• Variegated leaves contain red and brown pigments which masks the the green colour. However, they contain chlorophyll as well which help them in synthesising their own food by the process of photosynthesis.
