- A. Transportation
- B. Fermentation
- C. Sterilization
- D. Ripening
Explanation: Fermentation is the anaerobic breakdown of organic substances when oxygen is absent, often producing alcohol or organic acids.
Correct answer: Fermentation- A. Leucoplast
- B. Protoplast
- C. Chromoplast
- D. Chloroplast
Explanation: Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll and the enzymes of photosynthesis, with light reactions occurring in their thylakoid membranes and carbon…
Correct answer: Chloroplast- A. 25-35°C
- B. 18-24°C
- C. 20-25°C
- D. 10-20°C
Explanation: Warm-season crops grow best under relatively high temperatures, commonly about 25–35°C.
Correct answer: 25-35°C- A. 0°C
- B. -1°C
- C. 1°C
- D. 2°C
Explanation: Tender crops are injured by freezing conditions, so they generally cannot tolerate temperatures at or below 0°C.
Correct answer: 0°C- A. Absolute temperature
- B. Various temperature
- C. Cardinal temperature
- D. All the above
Explanation: The minimum, optimum and maximum temperatures for a crop are its cardinal temperatures.
Correct answer: Cardinal temperature- A. Heat of vaporization
- B. Heat energy
- C. Heat of fusion
- D. Mechanical heat
Explanation: Heat required to convert one kilogram of liquid into vapour at its boiling point is the latent heat of vaporization.
Correct answer: Heat of vaporization- A. 1
- B. 2
- C. 3
- D. 4
Explanation: In Pakistan, potato is commonly grown in three seasonal crops: autumn, spring and summer, with the summer crop mainly associated with…
Correct answer: 3- A. Senescence
- B. Partial Senescence
- C. Complete Senescence
- D. All the above
Explanation: Complete senescence occurs when the whole plant body dies while the seeds remain viable for continuation of the species.
Correct answer: Complete Senescence- A. Fruit ripening
- B. Maturity
- C. Both a & b
- D. Senescence
Explanation: Senescence is the genetically regulated aging process in which plant tissues deteriorate and eventually die.
Correct answer: Senescence- A. Hypocotyle
- B. Micropyle
- C. Epictyl
- D. None of the above
Explanation: The hypocotyl is the embryonic stem region below the cotyledons and above the radicle.
Correct answer: Hypocotyle- A. Glucopage
- B. Glycolysis
- C. Glycogen
- D. None of the above
Explanation: Glycolysis is the pathway that breaks glucose, or a compound entering through fructose metabolism, into pyruvic acid while releasing…
Correct answer: Glycolysis- A. Oxidation
- B. Transportation
- C. Respiration
- D. Both a & b
Explanation: Respiration is the controlled oxidation of organic compounds, releasing their stored energy for cellular activities.
Correct answer: Respiration- A. Photoperiodism
- B. Transpiration
- C. Photosynthesis
- D. Conversion
Explanation: Photosynthesis converts light energy into chemical energy stored mainly in glucose.
Correct answer: Photosynthesis- A. Angiosperm
- B. Gymnosperm
- C. Dieetyledens
- D. Monocotyledons
Explanation: Angiosperms are flowering plants whose seeds are enclosed within fruits, and they include many major food, fiber and shelter-producing…
Correct answer: Angiosperm- A. Ecology
- B. Taxonomy
- C. Morphology
- D. Histology
Explanation: Taxonomy identifies, names and classifies plants into groups based on their characteristics.
Correct answer: Taxonomy- A. Heat action
- B. Molar heat
- C. Specified heat
- D. None of the above
Explanation: Specific heat is the heat required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a substance by 1°C.
Correct answer: Specified heat- A. Km
- B. Lumen
- C. Noticlemiles
- D. Lux
Explanation: Lux is the metric unit of illuminance, measuring the amount of light falling on a surface.
Correct answer: Lux- A. Abscisic acid
- B. Auxins
- C. Gibberellins
- D. All the above
Explanation: Auxins are produced in actively growing regions such as terminal and lateral buds and help regulate growth and apical dominance.
Correct answer: Auxins- A. Long day plants
- B. Long night plants
- C. Day natural plants
- D. Long day and Long night plants
Explanation: Cucumber, kidney bean, pea and tomato are generally day-neutral plants, meaning flowering is not strongly controlled by day length.
Correct answer: Day natural plants- A. Senescence
- B. Both a & b
- C. Maturity
- D. Partial Senescence
Explanation: Senescence is the natural deterioration and death of plant organs. When it affects only certain aerial parts while the remainder of the…
Correct answer: Partial Senescence
