2. Shoots growing towards the light. - Negative geotropism

3. Shoots growing upward. - Negative phototropism

4. Roots growing downwards away from light. - Positive geotropism

Answer:

Column A - Column B

1. Roots growing downwards into soil. - Positive geotropism

2. Shoots growing towards the light. - Positive phototropism

3. Shoots growing upward. - Negative geotropism

4. Roots growing downwards away from light. - Negative phototropism

 

IV. State whether true or false. If false, correct the statement:

 

1. The response of a part of plant to the chemical stimulus is called phototropism.

Answer: False.

Correct statement : The response of a plant part to the chemical stimulus is called Chemotropism.

2. Shoot is positively phototropic and negatively geotropic.

Answer: True.

3. When the weather is hot, water evaporates lesser which is due to opening of stomata. Answer: False.

Correct statement : When the weather is hot, water evaporates more but stomata begin to close to reduce evaporation.

4. Photosynthesis produces glucose and carbon dioxide.

Answer: False.

Correct statement: Photosynthesis produces glucose and oxygen.

5. Photosynthesis is important in releasing oxygen to keep the atmosphere in balance.

Answer: True.

6. Plants lose water when the stomata on leaves are closed.

Answer: False.

Correct statement: Plants lose water when the stomata on leaves are open.
