Question
Statement I : Sugar beet, cabbage, carrot like plants are monocarpic.
Statement II : Both vernalisation and photoperiodism are related to flowering.
Statement I is correct, but Statement II is incorrect
Statement II is correct, but Statement I is incorrect.
Both statements are correct.
Both statements are incorrect.
Solution
C.
Both statements are correct.
Monocarpic plants flower only once in their life. These plants are generally annual biennial. They dies after flowering and fruiting e.g., sugar beet, cabbage, carrot, etc.
Veralisation is the process of inducing flowering by cold treatment and photoperiodism is the time period required for flowering. Thus, both the terms are related the flowering, but do not explain the assertion.
