- Question
An irregular mode of reproduction resulting in the development of an embryo without fertilization is called 1.Parthenogenesis 2.Apogamy 3.Sporophytic budding Select the correct answer using the code given below.
Options- A. 1 only
- B. 2 only
- C. 2 and 3 only
- D. 1, 2 and 3
- Correct Answer
- 1, 2 and 3
ExplanationIn animals, parthenogenesis means development of an embryo from an unfertilized egg cell. In plants parthenogenesis is a component process of apomixis.Apogamy is a type of reproduction, occurring in some ferns, in which the sporophytedevelops from the gametophyte without fusion of gametes.Adventitious embryony also called sporophytic budding, is a type of apomixis in which an embryo develops directly from nucellus or integument tissue.So, all three are correct.

Correct Answer: Plasmodesmata
Explanation:
Plasmodesmata are interrupted by narrow pores carrying fine strands of cytoplasm, which interlink the contents of the cells.
Correct Answer: Calcitonin
Explanation:
Calcitonin is 32-amino acid linear polypeptide hormone that is produced in humans primarily by the parafollicular cells of the thyroid, and in many other animals in the ultimopharyngeal body. It acts to reduce blood calcium, opposing the effects of parathyroid hormone.
Correct Answer: Chloroplast
Correct Answer: The flow of blood is obstructed
Correct Answer: Thyroxine
