Question

If you want to use a plant tissue culture as a chemical factory for vitamins, choose
A. Suspension Cultures
B. Callus Cultures
C. Organ Cultures
D. Anther Pollen Cultures
E. Protoplast Cultures

Answer 1

Plant tissue culture is the technique of growing many plants from a single plant by providing them with sufficient nutrients to grow and flourish. These plants are grown inside the labs and viral free plants can be generated in a short duration of time.

Complete answer: A cell suspension culture is the one which can be also called as the plant cell culture and it can be defined as the ‘culture of tissue and the cells cultured in the medium of liquid nutrient’ which can produce a suspension of single cells or clumps of cell and this suspension culture is the primary route for studying plant cell secondary metabolism this suspension culture requires optimization of the cell line, the cultivation media, and system of the bioreactor.
This can be used as a chemical factory for vitamins.

Hence the correct option is (A), Suspension cultures.

Note: Plant tissue culture can be used as a chemical factory of vitamins as it possesses all the required nutrients and minerals which are needed by the plant to grow and suspension cultures being liquid meet the demand even more.
