  1. Which of the following processes are associated with plants during dark period?
    1. Photosynthesis and respiration
    2. Respiration and transpiration
    3. Transpiration and conduction
    4. Conduction and respiration
Correct Option: D

Conduction is the process by which vital nutrients are transported to the different parts of a plant. This process is independent of the light factor. Respiration process in plants is the intake of carbon-dioxide and exhales oxygen during the day as the plants gets energy through the photosynthesis process in which the carbon-dioxide is converted into sugars using the sun light energy, as this process uses carbon-dioxide and water, the resulting gas oxygen is given out as a waste product. During the night, as the photosynthesis process cannot be happening without sun, so it exhales the carbon-dioxide itself.
