MCQ
Match the epidermal components with their descriptions: COLUMN I A. Root hairs B. Trichomes C. Subsidiary cells D. Stomatal pore COLUMN II 1. Surround guard cells and differ in shape 2. Unicellular elongation from epidermis 3. Site of gaseous exchange 4. Multicellular appendages of stem
  • A. A–3, B–1, C–2, D–4
  • B. A–1, B–2, C–4, D–3
  • C. A–4, B–3, C–2, D–1
  • D. A–2, B–4, C–1, D–3
✅ Correct Answer: D
Root hairs are unicellular, trichomes are multicellular, subsidiary cells assist guard cells, and stomatal pore is the aperture for exchange.
MCQ
Assertion (A): Trichomes are usually multicellular structures found in the shoot system. Reason (R): Trichomes assist in water absorption.
  • A. Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation
  • B. Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation
  • C. A is true, R is false
  • D. A is false, R is true
✅ Correct Answer: C
Trichomes are indeed multicellular and present in the shoot system, but they do not absorb water. Their role is to prevent transpiration and provide protection.
MCQ
Why does mesophyll appear as parenchymatous tissue in leaves?
  • A. It has thick cell walls
  • B. It lacks air spaces mimicking parenchyma
  • C. It stores starch only and hence appears like parenchyma
  • D. It is made of thin-walled chloroplast-containing cells
✅ Correct Answer: D
Mesophyll is made of parenchyma cells with chloroplasts and performs photosynthesis. It has both palisade and spongy layers in dicots.
