Q. No.Micronutrients in plants generally act:
1. as cofactors in enzymatic reactions.
2. to enhance regulatory functions.
3. to prevent chlorosis.
4. in the formation of cell walls.

A condition in which leaves produce insufficient chlorophyll leading to pale, yellow, or yellow-white leaves is called as:
1. Wilting
2. Etiolation
3. Chlorosis
4. Mosaicism

Necrosis of young leaves is a symptom of deficiency of calcium in plants indicating that calcium:
1. is a relatively immobile nutrient in plants.
2. is tied up in formed chlorophyll molecules.
3. is concentrated in the xylem of older leaves.
4. is concentrated in older leaves.

The importance of nitrogen fixation can be judged by the fact that:
1. it can only be done by certain prokaryotes.
2. it is most often the limiting factor in plant growth.
3. it is very expensive in terms of metabolic energy.
4. its availability replaces requirement of some other essential nutrients.
Nitrogen is unique amongst the essential mineral nutrients needed by the plant as it:
1. can be lost from the soil.
2. requires the action of bacteria to be made available to plants.
3. is part of nucleic acids.
4. is absorbed by the leaves through stomata.

Protein malnutrition is a serious problem in developing countries. If the essential amino acids in crop plants for human consumption can be increased, it can help to overcome this problem. The best method to produce such crop plants is by:
1. breeding for higher yield of deficient amino acids.
2. increasing the amount of NPK fertilizer used on fields.
3. creating mutants that do not form symbiotic relationship with microbes.
4. transferring nitrogen fixing genes to plants through genetic engineering.
A plant infected with Rhizobium:
1. has necrotic tissues.
2. dies.
3. gets flaccid.
4. probably will grow faster.
Identify the correct statement regarding biological nitrogen fixation:
1. The plant contributes the nitrogenase enzyme.
2. The process does not require much energy.
3. Leghemoglobin keeps concentration low within the nodule.
4. The bacteria of the nodule are autotrophic.
