Phytoremediation is:
1. concentrating minerals in rhizosphere.
2. minimizing soil erosion in arid lands.
3. nitrogen fixation by symbiotic bacteria in root nodules.
4. removal of heavy metals from polluted sites.
When nitrates are scarce in the soil where legumes are growing:
I. The plants secrete Nod factors that attract Rhizobia to their root hairs.
II. In turn the bacteria secrete flavonoids that stimulate the infection process in the plant.
1. Both I and II are correct
2. Only I is correct
3. Only II is correct
4. Both I and II are incorrect
The uptake of which of the following by a plant contributes maximum to its dry weight:
1. water and minerals through root hairs.
2. water and minerals through mycorrhizae.
3. carbon dioxide by leaves through stoma.
4. sugars in the root hairs.
All the following regarding bacteroid form of Rhizobium are true except:
1. It is a differentiated symbiotic form of nitrogen fixing Rhizobium
2. It is non-motile and non-reproductive
3. It has a more freely permeable membrane than free living Rhizobium
4. It is larger in size than the free living Rhizobium and spherical in shape
