Following statements are regarding to the evolutionary conservation of homeotic gene organization and transcriptional expression in fruit flies and mice.

A. In fruit flies and mice genes with similar structures occupy the same relative positions on each of the four chromosomes, and paralogous gene groups display similar expression patterns.

B. Hom-C cluster on Drosophila chromosome 3 and the four Hox gene clusters in the mouse genome are similar and evolutionary conserved.

C. Those mammalian genes homologous to the Drosophila labial, proboscipedia, and deformed genes are expressed anteriorly and early, whereas those genes homologous to the Drosophila AbdB gene are expressed posteriorly and later.

D. In fruit flies and mice genes are orthologous Hox gene groups.

E. Those mammalian genes homologous to the Drosophila labial, proboscipedia, and deformed genes are expressed posteriorly and later, whereas those genes homologous to the Drosophila AbdB gene are expressed anteriorly and early.

Nitrate reductase is an important enzyme for nitrate assimilation. Given below some regulation of nitrate reductase activity through phosphorylation and dephosphorylation.

a) Light, and other environmental factors stimulate a protein phosphatase that dephosphorylates a key serine residue in the hinge 1 region of nitrate reductase and thereby activates the enzyme

b) In Dark, and Mg2+ stimulate a protein kinase that phosphorylates the same serine residues, which then interact with a 14-3-3 inhibitor protein, and thereby inactivate nitrate reductase

c) In Light, and Mg2+ stimulate a protein kinase that phosphorylates the serine residues, and thereby activate nitrate reductase

d) In Dark, and other environmental factors stimulate a protein phosphatase that dephosphorylates a key serine residue in the hinge 1 region of nitrate reductase and thereby inactivates the enzyme
