Answer:
<h2>Ethylene is a gaseous hormone in plants, it is a fruit ripening hormone.</h2>
Explanation:
Ethylene is a chemical signal through which ripening fruits trigger the ripening process in fruits, Studies on components of ethylene signaling have shown a linear transduction pathway leading to the activation of ethylene response factors. However, the whole pathway by which ethylene selects the ripening-related genes and interacts with other signaling pathways to regulate the ripening process still not yet fully known. Most fruits produce ethylene that starts the ripening process. Its level in under-ripe fruit is very low, but as fruit develop, the production of ethylene become larger that speed up the ripening process of fruit.
The fir tree can be found in the coniferous forest biome, and the cactus can be found in the desert biome.
Option C.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
Both the cactus and fir trees are having modified tree leaves due to the same purpose - saving water.
The fir trees are found in the coniferous forests which are mainly seen in mountains or in the temperate region. Both the regions face very cold climates and frequent snowfalls in every years. This is why there's a lack of water in the surroundings. This is why they need to save water and minimize transpiration.
Whereas the cacti are found in desert or semi arid regions where water is itself very scarce and temperature is either very high or very low. So they have their leaves converted into spines which help to reduce transpiration.

The plants in a specific environment be impacted if there was a sudden drop in the amount of bacteria present in that area, there are positive and negative consequences associated with this situation.
Positive:
The decrease in bacterial colonization will prevent the plant from the diseases caused by the bacteria and this will promote plant growth. Like, black rot in Brassica caused by Xanthomonas campestris, bacterial canker in tomato, capsicum and chilli caused by Clavibacter michiganesis.
Negative:
Plants remains in symbiotic relationship with bacteria in order to obtain impermeable inorganic minerals from the soil. In the absence of bacteria, the plants will not receive these nutrients, and their growth may be hampered. Example bacteria fixes atmospheric nitrogen which is taken up by the root nodules of leguminous plants. In return these bacteria gets the food like carbohydrates produce by the plants
Answer:
The correct answer would be "The plant is a fern, and sporophyte is its dominant phase".
Ferns refer to the lower plants which do not bear flowers, have leafy or feathery fronds, and they reproduce by spores.
They show alternation of generation in which sporophyte is the dominant stage.
The mature diploid sporophyte releases haploid spores with the help of meiotic divisions.
The haploid spore divides by mitotic division and matures into a haploid gametophyte. The single gametophyte bears antheridium and archegonium which release flagellated male gametes and egg (female gamete) respectively with the help of mitotic division.
The gametes fertilize to produce a diploid zygote.
The zygote divides mitotically and matures into the diploid sporophyte.
Answer:
Water shed is created when an area or land separates the water flowing to different rivers, basin and seas.
Explanation:
Water shed are of different types-
- Large water sheds-Contain well developed channel networks.
- Small water sheds-Contain dominant land phase.
- Urban watershed-It is dominated by building,roads,pavements.
- Agriculture water shed-
- Forest water shed-Evapotranspiration is the dominant component of the hydrologic cycle.
- Mountain water shed-mountain is the dominant component that separates the water flow.
- Desert water shed-Sand dunes sand mounds that are formed by blowing air causes separation of water flow.
- Coastal watershed-Coastal area may partly be urban and is dynamic contact with sea.The hydrology is influenced by tidal action.
