1. It is defined as the judicial removal of plant to control shape, size, and fruit load: pruning
2. Shoot pruning promotes more whereas root pruning en-
courages .: 1. vegetative growth
2. reproductive growth
3. It has been proved that shoot pruning and root pruning in the soil
solution where fruit trees are growing: 1. Lowers C/N ratio
2. Raises C/N ratio
4. Shoot pruning promotes auxin imbalance in plants, a physiological re- sponse characterized
by.: apical dominance
5. Heading back pruning promotes and thinning out pruning en-
courages .: 1. growth
2. reproduction/fruiting
6. Pruning is usually done after : the last harsh cold spell
7. It is the control of the shape, size, and direction of plant growth: training
8. It is the art and science of the genetic improvement of plants.: plant breeding
9. It is assessed based on gain under selection, which includes genetic varia- tion, selection
intensity, and time: progress
10.They are improved for food, feed, fiber fuel, shelter, landscaping ecosys- tems services, and a
variety of other human activities: plants
11. are plants
that reproduce by using their own pollen while are plants
that use pollen of other plants to produce their seeds.: 1. self-pollinating
2. outcrossing
12.Sections of DNA that code for traits in plant: genes
13.Alternative forms of a gene and code for different versions of a trait: alleles
14.Two copies of the same allele: homozygous
15. It is the area of biology that uses living processes, organisms or systems to manufacture
products or technology intended to improve the quality of human life.: biotechnology
16.An advantage of clonal propagation: rapid multiplication
17.Clonal propagation, disease elimination, secondary products, germplasm storage, and genetic
improvement are....: Applications of plant cell and tissue culture
18. is a biotechnology technique used to obtain disease free plants: Dis- ease
elimination/heat treatment
19.Essential oils, food additives, pharmaceuticals, perfumes, insecticides, and pigments are
examples of : secondary products
20.Germplasm storage relies on the use of to preserve seeds
(germplasm), plant cells, and plant tissues for future propagation: cold
