Explanation

Bryophytes such as mosses and algae are non-vascular plants.

They do not possess true roots, stems and leaves.

Xylem and phloem are absent. Bryophytes include liverworts, hornworts and mosses.

Explanation

Autumn leaves appear red and yellow because carotenoids are revealed.

This happens when chlorophyll breaks down in response to less sunlight.

Shown is a colour photograph of bright red and yellow flowers with green stems and leaves.

Explanation

Transpiration is ultimately the main driver of water movement in xylem, combined with the effects of capillary action.

The cohesion-tension model works like this: Transpiration (evaporation) occurs because stomata in the leaves are open to allow gas exchange for photosynthesis.

Explanation

The living simple tissue that provides support to the growing parts of a plant is collenchyma.

Collenchyma is a simple permanent tissue.

The cells are thickened at the corners due to the deposition of cellulose, hemicellulose, and pectin.

It provides mechanical support to the young, growing parts of the plant.

Explanation

The branch of botany that deals with the classification and evolutionary study of plants is called Systematics, which includes Plant Taxonomy,

Explanation

During infection, fungi typically penetrate plant tissues through Stomata

Fungi often enter plant tissues through natural openings like stomata, which are small pores on the surface of leaves. 

Explanation

In the ABO blood group system, there are three alleles (IA, IB, and i) that determine the blood type.

These alleles interact to produce four possible blood types: A, B, AB, and O.

Multiple alleles refer to a situation where more than two alternative forms (alleles) of a gene are present in a population, as seen in the ABO blood group system.

Explanation

Gigantism and Dwarfism are diseases related to the growth hormone of the adenohypophysis.

Explanation

In earthworms, the skin serves as the organ of respiration.

This type of respiration is called cutaneous respiration.

The skin is thin, transparent, moist and richly supplied with blood capillaries.
