Solutions:
23. Option(c) Xylem with lignin
Explanation:
*Green algae are closely related to plants on the basis of several characters:
*Both of their chloroplast structure is same containing both chlorophyll a & chlorophyll b
*Their chloroplasts are similar in structure and function.
*Their chloroplasts synthesize starch as a storage product.
*Plants possess vascular tissues like xylem and phloem (vascular tissues are specialized for transporting nutrients and water).
*In plants, lignin in xylem provides mechanical support for the plants . In green algae, vascular tissues are not necessary since the entire body is in contact with the water and the water simply enters the algae.
24. Option (a) palisade parenchyma (mesophyll) cells
Explanation:
*Mesophyll is the internal ground tissue located between the two epidermal cell layers of leaf and is composed of two kinds of tissue: the palisade parenchyma and the spongy parenchyma.
*Palisade parenchyma cells help in photosynthesis and contain more chloroplasts than the cells of spongy parenchyma.
*Spongy parenchyma cells allow exchange of gases like Carbon dioxide required for photosynthesis.
*Companion cells are found in the phloem of plants. It regulates the activity of the adjacent sieve element and take part in loading and unloading of sugar into the sieve element.

please choose the right answer Question 36 You decide green algae should be classified as plants. Which of the following is most likely NOT a reason why you would do this? a. Two of these are not reasons to call algae plants. b. They have genes similar to genes in land plants. c. They are single-celled organisms. d. They have cellulose in their cell walls. e. They have chlorophyll.
Photosynthesis and Chloroplasts You will read that only plants, algae, and some bacteria are photosynthetic. There is an exception to this, however. One species of sea slug has found a way to steal chloroplasts, store them in glands lining its digestive tract, and live on the sugar that is produced (Milius, 2010). The sea slug has even commandeered the genes to help repair these chloroplasts to keep them working for 9 months—longer than the algae would (Fang, 2015)! What if...
Which of the following statement is true about C3 and C4 plants? Multiple Choice A C3 plants are more successful in hot climates than C4 plants. B In C4 cells, CO2 is fixed at night to decrease water loss.C C3 plants deliver CO2 to the Calvin cycle using bundle sheath cells sheltered from leaf air spaces. D In C3 plants, O2 competes with CO2 for the active site of RuBP carboxylase. E C3 plants have chloroplasts in the both the...
