Question

Study and match the following Lists

• A. A-II, B-I, C-III, D-V
• B. A-III, B-V, C-II, D-I
• C. A-V, B-III, C-II, D-I
• D. A-III, B-V, C-I, D-II

Hint:

In plant physiology, translocation refers to the long-distance movement of substances, while aquaporins facilitate the movement of water through membranes.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Matching Examples from List-I with List-II

A. Aquaporins: Aquaporins are specialized channels in cell membranes that facilitate the transport of water. 🔹 Matches with: III (Water channel).

B. Incipient plasmolysis: This is the initial stage where the protoplast begins to shrink due to water loss. 🔹 Matches with: V (Shrinkage of protoplast).

C. Simple diffusion: The passive movement of molecules from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. 🔹 Matches with: I (Passive process).

D. Translocation: The movement of nutrients and water over long distances in plants, facilitated by vascular tissues. 🔹 Matches with: II (Transport over distance).

Thus, the correct matching is: A-III, B-V, C-I, D-II

✅ Correct Answer: (4) A-III, B-V, C-I, D-II.
