Sample questions

  1. 1.Rakesh is identifying hormones based on their effects on plants. He has made the following table:
    HormoneEffect on the plant
    PPromotes flowering in pineapple
    QInduces fruit formation without fertilization in tomatoes
    Identify the correct pair of hormones.
    • A.P – Gibberellins, Q – Abscisic Acid
    • B.P – Cytokinins, Q – Auxins
    • C.P – Ethylene, Q – Auxins
    • D.P – Auxins, Q – Gibberellins
  2. 2.The hormone that functions as a growth promoter is:
    • A.Abscisic acid
    • B.Ethylene
    • C.Auxin
    • D.Both b and c
  3. 3.Which effect is associated with cytokinin but NOT with auxin?
    • A.Stimulates cell division and seed germination.
    • B.Promotes stem elongation and phototropism.
    • C.Accelerates root growth and fruit development.
    • D.Inhibits leaf senescence and delays aging.
  4. 4.Why are hormones referred to as 'chemical messengers'?
    • A.They transmit electrical signals between neurons.
    • B.They are released into ducts and transported to target organs.
    • C.They are chemicals poured into the bloodstream to regulate body functions.
    • D.They break down food molecules during digestion.
  5. 5.Why does the stem of a plant grow toward light?
    • A.Light destroys auxin on the illuminated side, causing uneven growth.
    • B.Auxin accumulates on the shaded side, promoting growth and curvature toward light.
    • C.Roots secrete a hormone that pulls the stem toward light.
    • D.Light directly stimulates cell division on the illuminated side.
