Differentiate between exclusive and inclusive series. |
|
Answer» Inclusive series : Those classes in which variable values equal to both their lower and upper limits are included in the class itself are called inclusive classes. In this method, the upper limit is not left out in any class- interval. This series can be identified by the fact that the upper limit of a class and the lower limit of the next class are not the same. Exclusive series In this series the upper limit of one class and the lower limit of the next class are the same. In this method of tabulation, the variable values equal to the upper limit of a class are not included in that class, rather they are included in the next class. |

What is vegetative propagation? What are its advantages? |
|
Answer» The process by which some plants can reproduce asexually by their vegetative parts like roots, stem and leaves is called vegetative propagation. It has many advantages. Plants raised by vegetative propagation can bear flowers and fruits earlier than those produced from seeds. Plants that have lost the capacity to produce seeds like banana, rose and jasmine can be propagated by this method. All plants produced by this method are genetically similar to the parent plant. |
