The Great Plant Escape - Quiz

The Great Plant Escape is an elemertary plant science program. Do you know that within every seed lives a tiny plant or embryo? Know more interesting facts in this quiz.


Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    This part of the plant anchors it to the ground, brings in water and nutrients from the soil and can store food. 

    • A.

      roots

    • B.

      Stems

    • C.

      Leaves

    • D.

      Seeds

    Correct Answer
    A. roots
    Explanation
    The correct answer is roots because roots are responsible for anchoring the plant to the ground, absorbing water and nutrients from the soil, and storing food. Stems provide support and transport water and nutrients, leaves are responsible for photosynthesis and gas exchange, and seeds are reproductive structures. However, none of these options fulfill all the functions mentioned in the question except for roots.

    • A.

      Seeds

    • B.

    • C.

      stems

    • D.

      Roots

    Correct Answer
    A. Seeds
  • 3. 

    These carry water between the leaves and roots and support the plant to reach the sunlight. (9 points) 

    • A.

      Seeds

    • B.

      leaves

    • C.

      Stems

    • D.

      Roots

    Correct Answer
    A. Seeds
    Explanation
    Seeds do not carry water between the leaves and roots or support the plant to reach sunlight. Instead, stems are responsible for these functions. Stems transport water and nutrients from the roots to the leaves through a system of vessels. Additionally, stems also provide structural support to the plant, allowing it to grow upright and reach sunlight for photosynthesis.

  • 4. 

    These contain embroys or tiny plants ready to make a new plant.

    • A.

      Seeds

    • B.

      Leaves

    • C.

      stems

    • D.

      Roots

    Correct Answer
    A. Seeds
    Explanation
    Seeds contain embryos or tiny plants that are capable of developing into a new plant. When a seed is planted in suitable conditions, it germinates and the embryo inside starts to grow, eventually forming a new plant. Seeds are the reproductive structures of plants and serve as a means of dispersal to ensure the survival and propagation of the species.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    These contain the male and female parts of the plant. The petals attract insects and birds who help with pollination

    • A.

      Seeds

    • B.

      Leaves

    • C.

      Stems

    • D.

      Roots

    Correct Answer
    A. Seeds
    Explanation
    Seeds contain both the male and female parts of the plant, allowing for reproduction. The petals of a plant attract insects and birds, which then help with pollination by transferring pollen from the male parts of one flower to the female parts of another. This process is essential for fertilization and the production of seeds. Therefore, seeds are the correct answer as they play a crucial role in the plant's reproductive process.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    Which of these is not necesary for a plant to grow?

    • A.

      Room

    • B.

      Milk

    • C.

      water

    • D.

      Air

    Correct Answer
    A. Room
    Explanation
    A room is not necessary for a plant to grow. Plants require water, air, and sunlight to carry out photosynthesis and grow. While a room may provide a controlled environment for optimal growth, it is not an essential requirement for a plant's survival and growth.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    Which of these is NOT needed for a plant to grow? 

    • A.

      Nutrients

    • B.

      Light

    • C.

      Water

    • D.

      Space or room

    Correct Answer
    A. Nutrients
    Explanation
    Nutrients are essential for plant growth as they provide the necessary elements for various physiological processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, and growth. Without nutrients, plants would not be able to obtain the necessary building blocks for their growth and development. Light is required for photosynthesis, water is needed for nutrient uptake and transportation, and space or room is necessary to accommodate the plant's growth. Therefore, the correct answer is nutrients, as they are indeed needed for a plant to grow.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    Which of these statements is FALSE?

    • A.

      Plants like the same temperatures people like

    • B.

      Plants tend to grow towrd the light

    • C.

      Plants grow at the same rate

    • D.

      pollution can harm plants

    Correct Answer
    A. Plants like the same temperatures people like
    Explanation
    This statement is false because plants do not necessarily like the same temperatures as people do. While some plants may thrive in warmer temperatures, others may prefer cooler climates. The ideal temperature for plant growth varies depending on the species and their specific environmental requirements. Therefore, it cannot be generalized that plants like the same temperatures as people.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    The ovary of the plant grows into this. 

    • A.

      Seeds

    • B.

      Leaves

    • C.

      Stems

    • D.

      Roots

    Correct Answer
    A. Seeds
    Explanation
    The ovary of a plant is responsible for producing and containing the seeds. After pollination, the ovary develops into a fruit, which protects and nourishes the developing seeds. Eventually, the ovary wall will mature and become the outer layer of the seed, while the ovules inside the ovary will develop into the embryo of the seed. Therefore, the correct answer is seeds.
