The stem is the main structural part of the plant that provides support and transports water, nutrients, and sugars between the roots and leaves. It also houses the vascular system of the plant, which includes the xylem and phloem. The stem of the papaya plant is usually thick and fleshy, with a smooth surface and green color.

    The hermaphrodite can self-pollinate since its flowers contain both male stamen and female?

    • Organ

    • Xylem

    • Ovaries

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Ovaries
    Explanation
    The correct answer is ovaries because ovaries are the female reproductive organs in plants that contain the female gametes and are responsible for producing seeds. In the given question, it is mentioned that the hermaphrodite plant has flowers containing both male stamen and female organs, which include the ovaries. This means that the plant can self-pollinate by transferring pollen from the male stamen to the female ovaries, leading to the production of seeds.

    In Australia, there are red papaya and yellow pawpaw respectively, its biological rank is?

    • Genus

    • Species

    • Plantae

    • Citrus

    Correct Answer
    A. Species
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Species" because the question is asking about the biological rank of red papaya and yellow pawpaw in Australia. The biological rank "Species" refers to the most specific level of classification in the Linnaean system, where organisms that share common characteristics and can interbreed belong to the same species. Therefore, red papaya and yellow pawpaw are different species within the same genus or plant family.

    Two kinds of papayas are commonly grown, red or orange flesh and other has?

    • Red flesh

    • Grey flesh

    • Yellow flesh

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Yellow flesh
    Explanation
    The correct answer is Yellow flesh. This is because the question is asking about the other kind of papaya commonly grown, which is different from the red or orange flesh variety. Since none of the other options (red flesh, grey flesh) are the correct answer, yellow flesh is the only remaining option.

    The leaves are large in diameter, deeply palmately lobed with? - ProProfs

    The leaves are large in diameter, deeply palmately lobed with?

    • Hydbrid loves

    • Seven lobes

    • Dichasia

    • Palmately

    Correct Answer
    A. Seven lobes
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Seven lobes". This means that the leaves in question have seven distinct lobes or divisions. The term "palmately lobed" refers to the arrangement of lobes radiating out from a central point, resembling the shape of a hand with outstretched fingers. In this case, the leaves are not only palmately lobed, but they specifically have seven lobes.

    The male papaya tree never produces fruit, only?

    • Flowers

    • Leaves

    • Pollen

    • Stamen

    Correct Answer
    A. Pollen
    Explanation
    The male papaya tree never produces fruit because it only produces pollen. Pollen is the male reproductive cell of the plant, which is transferred to the female flowers for fertilization. While the female papaya tree produces fruit, the male tree's main role is to produce pollen to facilitate pollination and reproduction in the species.
