internal membrane systems that may become extensive and complex in photosynthetic bacteria
Chromatophores are internal membrane systems present in photosynthetic prokaryotes. These develop as membrane lined sacs or thylakoids from plasma membrane. Thylakoid membranes contain photosynthetic pigments in cyanobacteria and purple bacteria. Small sacs or granules containing pigments phycobilin are attached to these membranes. In green bacteria chromatophores are covered by non-unit, non-lipid protein membrane. They are sometimes called chlorosomes.
seed plants showing abnormal forms of growth and development
plants described only in fossil state
plants described in the literature but which Bentham and Hooker did not see in original
a few orders which could not be placed satisfactorily in the classification.
The function of leghaemoglobin during biological nitrogen fixation in root nodules of legumes is to
convert atmospheric N2 to NH3
convert ammonia to nitrite

protect nitrogenase from oxygen
A scion is grafted to a stock. The quality of fruits produced will be determined by the genotype of
stock
scion
both stock and scion
neither stock nor scion.
Grafting is successful in dicots but not in monocots because the dicots have
vascular bundles arranged in a ring
cambium for secondary growth
vessels with elements arranged end to end
cork cambium
Myxomycetes are
saprobes or parasites, having mycelia, asexual reproduction by fragmentation, sexual reproduction by fusion of gametes
slimy mass of multinucleate protoplasm, having pseudopodia-like structures for engulfing food, reproduction through fragmentation or zoospores
prokaryotic organisms, cellular or acellular, saprobes or autotrophic, reproduce by binary fission
eukaryotic, single-celled or filamentous, saprobes or autotrophic, asexual reproduction by fusion of two cells or their nuclei.
Tadpoles of frog can be made to grow as giant sized tadpoles, if they are
