MCQ

उत्तर

Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A).

Explanation:

Both assertion and reason are true as Plants close their stomata at night to conserve water. During the day, stomata open for photosynthesis, allowing gas exchange. At night, when photosynthesis ceases, plants close these pores to prevent water loss through evaporation. The opening and closing are controlled by guard cells, conserving water while not needing CO2 for photosynthesis​.

The most obvious outcome of the reproduction process is the generation of individuals of similar design, but in sexual reproduction they may not be exactly alike. The resemblances as well as differences are marked. The rules of heredity determine the process by which traits and characteristics are reliably inherited. Many experiments have been done to study the rules of inheritance.
