Identify the part of the seed from the given figure which is destined to form root when the seed germinates.
Identify the part of the seed from the given figure which is destined to form root when the seed germinates.
- A
- B
- C
- D
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
In a seed, the part that forms the root during germination is called the radicle, which is located at the base of the embryo. From the given figure, the part labeled C corresponds to the radicle.
\[ \begin{array}{|c|c|} \hline \textbf{Seed Part} & \textbf{Function} \\ \hline \text{Radicle (C)} & \text{Develops into the root} \\ \text{Plumule} & \text{Develops into the shoot} \\ \text{Cotyledons} & \text{Store food for the developing seedling} \\ \hline \end{array} \]
Thus, the correct answer is (3) C.

Consider a water tank shown in the figure. It has one wall at \(x = L\) and can be taken to be very wide in the z direction. When filled with a liquid of surface tension \(S\) and density \( \rho \), the liquid surface makes angle \( \theta_0 \) (\( \theta_0 < < 1 \)) with the x-axis at \(x = L\). If \(y(x)\) is the height of the surface then the equation for \(y(x)\) is: (take \(g\) as the acceleration due to gravity)
