NEET Biology Plant Kingdom Question Bank Assertion and Reason

  • question_answer
    Assertion                :       Indusium dries in mature sours and releases sporangia. Reason                   :       Mature sporangium releases spores by the structures-annulus and stomium.

    A) If both the assertion and the reason are true and the reason is a correct explanation of the assertion

    B) If both the assertion and reason are true but the reason is not a correct explanation of the assertion 

    C) If the assertion is true but the reason is false

    D) If both the assertion and reason are false

    E) If the assertion is false but reason is true

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    With the maturing of the sorus the indusium dries and shrivels, thus exposing the sporangia to dry air. The sporangium consists of a stalk and a capsule. The capsule cosists of the annulus or organ of dehiscence and the stomium, which permits an easy cleavage when the mature sporangium begins to dehisce.
