Following statements regarding to the embryogenesis in A. thaliana.

A. The first zygotic division is unequal, with the basal cell larger than the apical cell. The basal cell divides to give rise to the suspensor. The apical cell divides vertically to form a two-celled proembryo, which will give rise to the rest of the embryo.

B. The top most suspensor cell is recruited into the embryo, where it is known as the hypophysis, and contributes to the embryonic root meristem and root cap.

C. The next two divisions produce an eight-cell octant-stage embryo, which develops into a heart-stage embryo of around 32 cells

D. The embryo elongates and the cotyledons start to develop as wing-like structures at one end, while an embryonic root forms at the other. This stage is known as the globular stage.

In 2001, the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded to three cell cycle scientists. Paul Nurse was recognized for his studies with the fission yeast S. pombe, in particular for the discovery and characterization of the wee1+ gene. What did the characterization of the wee1+ gene tell us about cell cycle control?

The series of events by which APC/C promotes the separation of sister chromatids at anaphase.
A. all the kinetochores have attached to spindle microtubules and the spindle apparatus is properly assembled and oriented.
B. Cdc20 specificity factor associated with APC/C directs it to ubiquitinylate securin and mitotic cyclins. 
C. A protease known as separase cleaves the cohesin subunit Scc1 (Rad21), breaking the protein circles linking sister chromatids.
D. anaphase begins as poleward force exerted on the kinetochores moves the split sister chromatids toward opposite spindle poles.
E. Following securin degradation and a decrease in mitotic CDK activity.
Which of the following series is correct?
