The following diagram is set up to demonstrate an experiment.

Five plants A, B, C, D and E were placed in a beaker containing water. The water in each beaker was covered with a layer of oil. The leaves were removed from plant D in plant B, upper surfaces of all the leaves were covered with Vaseline, in plant C the lower surfaces of all the leaves were covered with Vaseline and plant E was exposed to strong light. The beakers were then left for few hours and at the end of the experimental **, weights of each beaker were taken.

Write the correct answer out of the five available choices given under each question:

I. In which beaker would you expect the greatest decrease in weight?

(i) A (ii) B (iii) C (iv) D (v) E

II. In which beaker the change of weight would be minimum?

(i) A (ii) B (iii) C (iv) D (v) E

III. Which plant would remain healthy for a longer ** of time?

(i) A (ii) B (iii) C (iv) D (v) E

IV. In this experiment which plant can be considered as the uncontrolled one?

(I) A (ii) B (iii) C (iv) D (v) E

V. The difference of weight would be maximum between:

(i) A and B (ii) A and C (iii) A and D (iv) A and E (v) D and E
