Conceptual clarity is important to score

Botany is an integral part of Natural Sciences, easier to understand related with everyday human life. It will have a lot of scope for scoring maximum marks, need only to have foundation clear and also conceptual clarity is important to write good answers.

Junior Inter botany exam will be held for 60 Marks. The question paper has 3 Sections. 

Section - A: This section contains 10 Very Short Answer type questions without any choice. Each question carries 2 marks.

Section - B: This section has 12 Short questions. You have to answer any six. Each question carries 4 marks.

In this section, few questions were related to diagrams.

Section - C: This section consists of 4 long questions. You have to answer any of the two. Each question carries 8 marks.

Deleted Topics:

Unit 1: Living World - Taxonomic categories, Taxonomic aids

Unit 4: Plant Kingdom - Angiosperms 

Unit 5: Morphology of flowering plants - Root, Stem, Fruit, Seed

Unit 6: Modes of Reproduction - Totally deleted

Unit 7: Plant systematics - Fabaceae 

Unit 12: Histology and anatomy of flowering plants - Tissues, The tissue systems, Dorsiventral leaf, Isobilateral leaf, Secondary growth

Unit 13:  Plant Ecology -  Plant succession, ecological services topics were deleted

    Hence no need to study the above topics. Keep in mind blue print and unitwise weightage of marks for preparation.
