Statement Based +4 −1

Given below are two statements

Statement (I) : Leaf area index indicates the proportion of ground area covered by leaves
Statement (II) : Relative growth rate indicates the proportionate growth of plant independent of their size

In light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.

  • Statement (I) is True: Leaf Area Index (LAI) is a dimensionless ratio defined by Watson (1947) as the total one-sided green leaf area per unit ground surface area ($\text{LAI} = \text{Leaf Area} / \text{Ground Area}$).
  • Statement (II) is True: Relative Growth Rate (RGR) quantifies plant growth efficiency normalized to initial dry weight ($\text{RGR} = \frac{1}{W} \frac{dW}{dt}$), measuring growth vigor independently of baseline plant size.
  • Conclusion: Both Statement (I) and Statement (II) are true.

Correct option: (1) Both Statement (I) and Statement (II) are true.
