Questions and Answers

What is phytomorphology?

  • The study of molecular processes in plants
  • The study of the physical form and external structure of plants (correct)
  • The study of the internal structure of plants at the microscopic level
  • The study of plant identification through DNA analysis

How does plant morphology differ from plant anatomy?

  • Morphology examines microscopic features, while anatomy looks at visible traits
  • Morphology focuses on external form and structure, while anatomy studies internal structure (correct)
  • Morphology studies plant behavior, while anatomy studies plant evolution
  • Morphology studies DNA, while anatomy studies physical characteristics

What does comparative morphology involve?

  • Investigating the relationship between plant morphology and climate
  • Examining structures in different plants of the same or different species, then drawing comparisons and formulating ideas about similarities (correct)
  • Studying the genetic pathways of a single plant species
  • Analyzing the molecular processes in plant development
