22. a)A-cotyledon,C-radicle,D-Plumule ½+½ 3
b) The zygote gives rise to the proembryo and subsequently to the globular, 2
heart-shaped and mature embryo. A typical dicotyledonous embryo consists
of an embryonal axis and two cotyledons. The portion of embryonal axis
above the level of cotyledons is the epicotyl, which terminates with the
plumule or stem tip. The cylindrical portion below the level of cotyledons is
hypocotyl that terminates at its lower end in the radicle or root tip. The root
tip is covered with a root cap.
23. a)A-Primary follicle,C-Graafian Follicle ½+½ 3
b) The secondary follicle soon transforms into a tertiary follicle which is 1
characterised by a fluid filled cavity called antrum. The theca layer is
organised into an inner theca interna and an outer theca externa
