Transpiration MCQs Class 10 Concise ICSE Biology Selina Solutions Ch-5

Que-1:The process of evaporative loss of water from the aerial parts of plant is:
  1. Ascent of sap
  2. Translocation
  3. Transpiration
  4. Exudation

Sol: Transpiration

Hint:  As definition Loss of water in form of vapors from aerial parts of plant is  Transpiration

Que-2: The process of oozing out of the fluids from a plant part is :
  1. Transpiration
  2. Excretion
  3. Transportation
  4. Exudation

Sol: Exudation

Hint: Exudation refers to oozing out of fluids from plant either from hydathodes or from injured part.

Que-3: Transpiration occurs:
  1. More from adaxial surface of a monocot leaf
  2. More from adaxial surface of a dicot leaf
  3. Equal from both the surfaces of a dicot leaf
  4. More from abaxial surface of a dicot leaf

Sol: More from abaxial surface of a dicot leaf

Hint: The lower or the abaxial side of leaf has more stomata which results in more transpiration.

Que-4: Guttation takes place through:
  1. Stomata
  2. Lenticels
  3. Hydathodes
  4. Cuticle

Sol: Hydathodes

Hint:  Hydathodes are minute pores found in leaves through which fluid oozes out in form of tiny droplets.

Que-5: The apparatus used to measure the rate of transpiration is
  1. Barometer
  2. Clinostat
  3. Manometer
  4. Potometer

Sol: Potometer

Hint:  Gannong Potometer measure the rate of transpiration

Que-6: Which of the following is an external factor affecting the rate of transpiration ?
  1. Number of stomata
  2. Exposed surface
  3. Humidity
  4. Sunken stomata

Sol: Humidity

Hint:   If the humidity is more then the diffusion of water vapour from sub stomatal space is slow

Que-7: The upper layer of mesophyll in a leaf consists of elongated ground tissue called:
  1. Spongy parenchyma.
  2. Palisade cells
  3. Xylem cells
  4. Phloem cells

Sol:  Palisade cells

Hint:  The upper layer of mesophyll in a leaf consists of elongated ground tissue called palisade mesophyll.

Que-8: Transpiration is significant for all except:
  1. Cooling effect
  2. Suction pull
  3. Ascent of sap
  4. Translocation of food

Sol:  Translocation of food

Hint: Translocation is a  process in which food is carried out by phloem tissue from leaves to other part of the plant.

Que-9: Hydathodes are located on:
  1. At the petiole
  2. Upper surface of leaves
  3. Lower surface of leaves
  4. Margins of leaves

Sol: Margins of leaves

Hint: Hydathodes are the tiny pores located on leaf margins. They are responsible for guttation.

Que-10:  When guard cells are flaccid, the stoma must be:
  1. Open
  2. Neither open nor closed
  3. Closed
  4. None of these

Sol: Closed

Hint:  When guard cells are flaccid, their inner wall is relaxed closing the stomata. Similarly, when the guard cells become turgid the inner wall is pulled outwards opening the stomata.
