  • A. Colorimeter
  • B. Paramagnetic analyzer
  • C. Hygrometer
  • D. none of the above

Explanation: A hygrometer measures atmospheric humidity, either directly or through changes in a sensing material.

Correct answer: Hygrometer
  • A. More
  • B. Too muchAccess Government Careers
  • C. No
  • D. Less

Explanation: High humidity reduces the vapour-pressure gradient between the leaf and surrounding air, so the driving force for water loss falls and…

Correct answer: Less
  • A. ATP
  • B. UTP
  • C. CTP
  • D. KTP

Explanation: Photophosphorylation is the light-driven formation of ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate in chloroplasts.

Correct answer: ATP
  • A. Glycogen
  • B. Starch
  • C. Sucrose
  • D. None of the above

Explanation: Plants commonly convert surplus glucose into starch, an osmotically safer storage carbohydrate that can later be broken down for energy.

Correct answer: Starch
  • A. Polysaccharide
  • B. Monosaccharide
  • C. Disaccharide
  • D. Trisaccharide

Explanation: Raffinose is a trisaccharide made of galactose, glucose and fructose. It belongs to the raffinose family of oligosaccharides rather than…

Correct answer: Trisaccharide
  • A. Inner membrane of mitochondria
  • B. Cytoplasm
  • C. matrix of mitochondria
  • D. Chloroplast

Explanation: In aerobic respiration, the electron transport chain is embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane, where electrons pass through…

Correct answer: Inner membrane of mitochondria
  • A. Ribosome's
  • B. Mitochondria
  • C. Lysosomes
  • D. Plastids

Explanation: Mitochondria contain the respiratory enzymes and electron-transport machinery used to release energy through cellular respiration.

Correct answer: Mitochondria
  • A. Glycogen
  • B. Cellulose
  • C. Strach
  • D. Fat

Explanation: Plants commonly store excess photosynthetic food as starch, an insoluble polysaccharide that can later be converted back into sugars.

Correct answer: Strach
  • A. Nitrogen
  • B. Potassium
  • C. Phosphorus
  • D. Zinc

Explanation: Nitrogen promotes leaf formation, chlorophyll production, and vigorous vegetative growth, giving plants a characteristic green colour.

Correct answer: Nitrogen
  • A. Iron
  • B. Phosphorus
  • C. Potassium
  • D. Nitrogen

Explanation: Phosphorus deficiency commonly causes anthocyanin accumulation, giving older leaves a reddish-purple or purplish appearance.

Correct answer: Phosphorus
  • A. Siliviculture
  • B. Sericulture
  • C. Regeneration
  • D. Nursery

Explanation: Regeneration is the establishment of a new crop or stand, either naturally from existing seed and growth or artificially through human…

Correct answer: Regeneration
  • A. Sericulture
  • B. Agro forestry
  • C. range forestry
  • D. Forestry

Explanation: Forestry is the science and practice of establishing, managing, and raising trees and forest resources.

Correct answer: Forestry
  • A. Long day plants
  • B. Short day plants
  • C. Photoperiod
  • D. Phototropism

Explanation: Long-day plants begin flowering when day length exceeds a critical duration, or when the uninterrupted night becomes sufficiently short.

Correct answer: Long day plants
  • A. Fates
  • B. Starch
  • C. Cellulose
  • D. Protein

Explanation: Cotton fibre is a long, greatly elongated plant cell whose wall is composed mainly of cellulose.

Correct answer: Cellulose
  • A. None of the above
  • B. Phagocytosis
  • C. Imbibitions
  • D. Pinoeytosis

Explanation: Pinocytosis is the uptake of liquid or dissolved substances by forming tiny vesicles from the cell membrane, so it is often called cell…

Correct answer: Pinoeytosis
  • A. Albinism
  • B. Acrodsome
  • C. Agoun
  • D. None of the above

Explanation: Albinism in plants refers to the absence or severe deficiency of chlorophyll, producing pale or white tissues.

Correct answer: Albinism
  • A. All the above
  • B. Castor
  • C. Colocasia
  • D. Maize

Explanation: Maize, castor and Colocasia bear separate male and female flowers on the same plant, which makes each species monoecious.

Correct answer: All the above
  • A. Chloroplast
  • B. Chromoplast
  • C. Leucoplast
  • D. Chlorsis

Explanation: Chlorosis is the loss or reduction of green chlorophyll colour, causing leaves to appear pale yellow.

Correct answer: Chlorsis
  • A. Hydrogen
  • B. Carbon dioxide
  • C. Nitrogen
  • D. Oxygen

Explanation: During daylight, photosynthesis generally exceeds respiration in green plants, giving a net release of oxygen.

Correct answer: Oxygen
  • A. 800-1200 Kg
  • B. 1200 Kg
  • C. 500 Kg
  • D. 5000 Kg

Explanation: Potato seed tuber requirements commonly range from about 800 to 1,200 kg per hectare, depending on tuber size and planting distance.

Correct answer: 800-1200 Kg
