Unit-I [Physiology]
In the next part of the series of EAMCET model papers Second year syllabus is being discussed. In second year entire Unit-I (Physiology) is being considered as one part for convenience. It consists of six chapters ie Transport in Plants, Mineral Nutrition, Enzymes, Photosynthesis, Respiration and Plant growth.
From this entire Unit 6-8 questions are possible. Equal importance must be given to each chapter. Though difficult to understand the concept with vague presentation difficult questions are not expected from this Unit. More importance must be given to Mineral Nutrition and then to Transport in plants.. Here are some model questions from these chapters.
