A.
mitochondria and inherited via egg cytoplasm
Genes present in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells are found in the mitochondria and inherited via egg cytoplasm. Maternal inheritances are the genetic effects that are transmitted via the maternal line. There are many such effects some resulting from the purely maternal origin of mitochondria or chloroplasts. others from effects on the phenotype of the embryo by easily development within the female, such as maternal influence on coiling of snails.
In the following table identify the correct matching of the crop, its disease and the corresponding pathogen.
| Crop | Disease | Pathogen |
| Citrus | Canker | Pseudomonas rubrilineans |
| Potato | Late blight | Fusarium udum |
| Brinjal | Root-knot | Meloidogyne incognita |
| Pigeon | pea Seed gall | Phytophthora infestans |
Pollution from animal excreta and organic waste from kitchen can be most profitably minimized by
storing them in underground storage tanks
using them for producing biogas
vermiculture
using them directly as biofertilizers
