  • A. They evolved directly from seed plants
  • B. They have xylem and phloem
  • C. They developed flowers and seeds
  • D. Their sporophyte is dependent on gametophyte
βœ… Correct Answer: B
Pteridophytes were the first land plants to evolve vascular tissues (xylem and phloem) for conduction, making them structurally advanced compared to bryophytes.

MCQ
Numerical taxonomy assigns codes to characters and processes them using:
  • A. Computers
  • B. Genetics only
  • C. Fossil data.
  • D. Charts and tables
βœ… Correct Answer: A
Numerical taxonomy gives equal weight to many traits and processes them using computational tools.
Assertion-Reason
Assertion (A): Conifers are well-adapted to survive in dry conditions. Reason (R): In conifers, needle-like leaves reduce surface area and their thick cuticle and sunken stomata help reduce water loss.
  • A. If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
  • B. If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
  • C. If assertion is true but reason is false.
  • D. If the assertion and reason both are false.
βœ… Correct Answer: A
NCERT describes conifer adaptations to dry conditions, making the Assertion true. NCERT states β€œIn conifers, the needle-like leaves reduce the surface area. Their thick cuticle and sunken stomata also help to reduce water loss.” The Reason correctly explains HOW conifers achieve drought adaptation through specific structural features that minimize water loss - this is a genuine mechanistic explanation of the adaptation.
