Write a note on static friction?

Answer»

Static Friction: 

Static friction is the force which opposes the initiation of motion of an object on the surface. The magnitude of static frictional force fs lies between

0 ≤ fs ≤ µs N

where, µs – coefficient of static friction 

N – Normal force then, equation shows that fs can take any value from 0 & µs N. If object is at rest, when no external force acts on it then fs = 0. If object is at rest, also external force acts on it, then fs = Fext

But still the static friction fs is less than µs N when object begins to slide, the static friction (fs) acting on the object attains maximum.

Name four artificial methods of vegetative propagation in plants.

Answer»

Artificially occuring forms of vegetative reproduction involve:

(i) Cutting: 

In this, a portion of a plant is cut and planted in the soil, usually a stem or a leaf. These cuttings are sometimes treated with hormones in order to induce root growth. The plant originates from the adventitious roots that grow from the cutting process. 

(ii) Grafting: 

In this, the cutting from some other plant is added to the plant stem embedded in the soil. The graft tissues become incorporated with the rooted plant tissues and grow over time as a single plant. 

(iii) Tissue culture: 

For this, to grow a new plant, the plant cells from various parts of a plant are cultivated in a laboratory. This technique is useful in growing the number of rare and endangered species of plants which cannot grow under natural conditions. 

(iv) Layering: 

In this, the stem of the plant is bent to the ground and covered with soil. Adventitious roots emerge from the plant parts covered with the soil. This attached stem with developing roots is known as a layer.

29041.

Explain three main techniques of artificial methods of vegetative propagation.

Answer» (1) The three main techniques of artificial methods of vegetative propagation are cutting, grafting and budding.
(2) Small pieces of plant parts like roots, stem or leaves which are able to develop into new plants are known as cuttings. These cuttings grow when placed in a moist soil. A cutting posseses primary meristem. It is most convenient and cheap method of propagation.
(3) Budding is kind of grafting in which a single bud with some part of bark is grafted on a particular selected stock.
(4) Grafting is a technique of joining together the parts of two different plants (stock and scion) in such a way so that they unite by their cambia and continue their growth as one plant.
(5) 1. Scion : The part of the plant, usually a piece of young stem which is inserted into a rooted stock to produce a graft is called scion.
2. Stock : A plant rooted in the soil on which the scion is inserted for grafting is called stock.
(6) Grafting promotes the physical and physiological union of two different plants for economic advantage.
(7) Grafting is a quicker method of reproduction.
It is an easter and less expensive method of multiplication of plants.
