Solution

The correct option is C Statement 1: False
Statement 2: True
  • In the pollination experiment, flowers are covered with plastic bags for restricting pollination. And then few flowers are uncovered so that pollens can be dusted only on those flower.
  • With two sets of flowers i.e., one covered and one uncovered we can compare the process of fruit formation.
  • Fruit formation symbolises the occurrence of fertilisation.
  • Fertilisation can only take place once pollination has occurred.
  • So the pollinated flowers develop into fruits whereas non-pollinated flowers do not develop into the fruit.
