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.

- An oxygen cylinder of volume 30 litre has 18.20 moles of oxygen. After some oxygen is withdrawn from the cylinder, its gauge pressure drops to 11 atmospheric pressure at temperature \(27^\circ\)C. The mass of the oxygen withdrawn from the cylinder is nearly equal to: [Given, \(R = \frac{100}{12} \text{ J mol}^{-1} \text{K}^{-1}\), and molecular mass of \(O_2 = 32 \text{ g/mol}\), 1 atm pressure = \(1.01 \times 10^5 \text{ N/m}^2\)]

- The plates of a parallel plate capacitor are separated by d. Two slabs of different dielectric constant \(K_1\) and \(K_2\) with thickness \(d/2\) and \(d/2\) respectively are inserted in the capacitor. Due to this, the capacitance becomes two times larger than when there is nothing between the plates. If \(K_1 = 1.25 K_2\), the value of \(K_2\) is :
