Question
Differentiate between primary and accessory reproductive organs
✓
Answer
| Primary Reproductive Organs | Accessory Reproductive Organs |
| The primary reproductive organs produce sex cells. | The accessory reproductive organs help in the transfer and meeting of two kinds of sex cells leading to fertilization. |
| The primary reproductive organs do not help in the development of baby. | The accessory organs help in the growth and development of egg up to the birth of baby. |
| Example: Testes in males and ovaries in females. | Example: penis in males, Uterus, vagina in female. |

The apparatus shown here is Girreau’s poto-meter designed to demonstrate unequal transpiration from the two surfaces of a dorsiventral leaf. Before keeping the leaf in between the cups, anhydrous calcium chloride ($CaCl_2$) contained in two small vials were weighed and placed in both the cups. The ends of the cups were closed with corks through which two mercury manometers were connected. After a few hours, $CaCl_2$ vials were taken out and weighed again.
(i) What is the purpose of keeping $CaCl_2$ vials inside the cup?
(ii) After a few hours, the $CaCl_2$ vials were taken out and weighed again. Will you expect any difference in weight? If so, give reasons.
(iii) What was the purpose of using a mano-meter?
(iv) What do you mean by transpiration?
