Question

Match the physiological phenomena in Column I with the structures involved in Column II and indicate the correct choice
$\begin{array}{cccc}& \text{Column I}& & \text{Column II}\\ \left(A\right)& \text{Ascent of sap}& \left(P\right)& \text{Hydathodes}\\ \left(B\right)& \text{Translocation of organic solutes}& \left(Q\right)& \text{Chlorenchyma}\\ \left(C\right)& \text{Transpiration}& \left(R\right)& \text{Xylem}\\ \left(D\right)& \text{Guttation}& \left(S\right)& \text{Stomata}\\ & & \left(T\right)& \text{Phloem}\end{array}$

• A. A=R, B=T, C=S, D=Q
• B. A=R, B=T, C=P, D=S
• C. A=T, B=R, C=S, D=P
• D. A=R, B=T, C=S, D=P

Answer 1

The correct option is D A=R, B=T, C=S, D=P

Ascent of sap is the upward movement of water and minerals through xylem. The transport of water and solutes are associated with the vascular tissues and loss of water is through stomata and hydathodes. Organic solutes are transported through the phloem. Transpiration takes place through the stomata. Guttation is the process of giving out of water in liquid form by hydathodes in certain plants.
