Question

Q1. Read the given passage carefully and answer the following questions. Once the Buddha was seated with his discipline near the town of Shravasti. A woman named Krishna Gautami came up to the Buddha and knelt at his feet. She was wild with grief and carried her small child in the fold of her sari. “I have been to everyone,” she pleaded, “but still my son will not move, will not breathe. Can’t you save him? Can’t the Blessed one work miracles?” “I can help you, sister,” the Buddha promised tenderly. “But first, I will need a little mustard seed and it must come from a house where no one has died.” Krishna Gautami was overjoyed. She raced back to the village immediately and stopped at the very first house. The woman who met her was full of understanding. “Of course, I will give you some mustard seed! How much does the Blessed one need to work his miracle?” “Just a little,” Krishna Gautami said. Then remembering suddenly, she added, “But it must come from a house where no one has died.” Her neighbour turned back with a smile of pity, “Little Gautami, you know how many have died here. Just last month, I lost my grandfather.” Krishna Gautami lowered her eyes, ashamed, “I’m sorry, I’ll try next door.” But next door it was the same and at the next house, and the next, and the house after that. Everyone wanted to help, but no one, even in the wealthiest homes, could meet that one simple condition. Death had come to all. Finally Krishna Gautami understood. She took her child to the cremation ground and returned to the Buddha. “Sister,” he greeted her, “did you bring me the mustard seed?” “Blessed one,” she said, falling at his feet, “I have had enough of this mustard seed. Just let me be your disciple.” Q-1) Why was Krishna Gautami wild with grief? Q-2) What did she want the Buddha to do for her? Q-3) Why could she not bring the mustard seed? Q-4) Do the people in the village want to help Gautami? Why they couldn’t help? Q-5) What did Gautami realised? What did she decide to do at the end?​

The cotyledons provide a similar function. These are the seed leaves and they also contain storage of food for the developing plant.

The cotyledons in some cases are major photosynthetic producers during germination.

So, the correct option is, 'help in seed germination'.
