NEET Botany Phases of Growth Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
Column-I Column-II (a) Primary Growth (i) Increase in girth of the plant (b) Secondary Growth (ii) Cell elongation and differentiation (c) Meristematic Zone (iii) Formation of vascular cambium (d) Maturation Phase (iv) Attaining maximal cell size
Choose the correct matching:
a-ii, b-i, c-iii, d-iv
a-i, b-ii, c-iv, d-iii
a-ii, b-iv, c-iii, d-i
a-ii, b-iii, c-i, d-iv
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Primary growth is associated with cell elongation and differentiation, while secondary growth refers to the increase in the girth of the plant through lateral meristems such as the vascular cambium. The meristematic zone is where cells actively divide and elongate, and the maturation phase involves cells attaining their maximal size.
