Fruit growing have following economic and
nutritional advantages. High productivity: High
yield per unit area: From a unit area of land more
yield is realized from fruit crops than any of the
agronomic crops. The average yields of Papaya,
Banana and Grapes are 10 to 15 times more that of agronomic crops.

a. teosinte and maize can produce fertile hybrids.
b. teosinte and maize have similar chromosomes.
c. Both Teosinte and maize have naked, soft kernel.
d. Teosinte and maize can produce fertile hybrids
Solution
Beadle started working on maize genetics since 1962 after joining graduate school at Cornell University.
During his research he found that the chromosomes of teosinte and maize possess higher similarity and also show signs of intercross ability of the two species and hence confirmed that wild teosinte is an ancestor of domesticated maize.
He later concluded that there are only 4 to 5 genes that make these two species different from each other rest all is similar.
Option B is correct
Among the listed plants above, the one that we can expect to grow lowest to the ground would be the hornworts. Hornworts are non-vascular plants which can be found both on water and land. Since these plants do not have a vascular system, it is hard for them to move water internally due to the force of gravity which explains why they cannot grow more above the ground.
