Question

(a) If both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation ofAssertion(b) If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation ofAssertion(c) If Assertion is true, but Reason is false(d) If Reason is true, but Assertion is false(e) If both Assertion and Reason are false

Q.1 Assertion: Respiration is opposite of Photosynthesis[1]Reason:In Photosynthesis food is made from energy and in Respiration food is converted to energy.

Q.2 Assertion: Translocation of food occurs in Plants.[1]Reason:Xylem tissue is responsible for Translocation.

Answer 1

Answer:

Q1.

(a) Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation for assertion.

Explanation-  

Equation for Photosynthesis:

$6CO2 + 6H{2} O -----> C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O$

(carried out using solar energy)

Equation for respiration:

$Glucose(C6H12O6) + Oxygen(6O2) ----->Carbon dioxide(6CO2) + Water(6H2O)+ Energy (ATP)$

Q2

(c) Assertion is true but reason is false.

Explanation-

Translocation of food occurs in plants, but phloem tissue is responsible for translocation of food.

Xylem is responsible for only transport of water and minerals in perpendicular direction to leaves.

Explanation:

Answer 2

Q1.

(a) Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation for assertion.

Photosynthesis is the polar opposite of respiration, which breaks down the glucose created by photosynthesis. Carbon dioxide and water are utilised in photosynthesis to make glucose and oxygen. Glucose is used to store energy in this process. Glucose and oxygen are utilised to make carbon dioxide and water during respiration. Glucose is converted into energy in this process.

Q2

(c) Assertion is true but reason is false.

Food translocation happens in plants, however it is accomplished through the phloem tissue.

Only water and minerals are transported in a perpendicular path to leaves through xylem.
