Following are given stages of gibberellin biosynthetic pathway;

a) Geranylgeranyl diphosphate (GGPP) is converted to ent-kaurene  via copalyl diphosphate (CPP) in endoplasmic reticulum

b) In the endoplasmic reticulum, conversion of ent-kaurene into GA12 or GA53 depending on whether the GA is hydroxylated at carbon 13

c) the conversion of GA12 or GA53 into other GAs in cytosol proceeds with a series of oxidations at carbon 20

d) GA20 is then oxidized to the active gibberellin, GA1, by a 3β-hydroxylation reaction

Which of the following is the correct statements of GA biosynthesis?

Some given statements about ethylene signalling pathways are listed;

a) Ethylene receptors are interact with two downstream signaling proteins, CTR1 (CONSTITUTIVE TRIPLE RESPONSE1) and EIN3 (ETHYLENE-INSENSITIVE3)

b) CTR1 is a soluble serine/threonine kinase that is associated with ethylene receptors, while EIN2 is an ER transmembrane protein with a cytosolic C-terminal domain that is a target for CTR1 kinase activity

c) EIN2 is required to stabilize transcription factors of the EIN3 (ETHYLENEINSENSITIVE3) family, which activate the transcription of ethylene-responsive genes

d) EIN3 is required to stabilize transcription factors of the EIN2 (ETHYLENEINSENSITIVE2) family, which activate the transcription of ethylene-responsive genes

Which of the following is the correct statements  of auxin signalling pathway ?
