Stomata from intact, attached leaves of Arabidopsis illuminated with blue, red, and green light in a growth chamber, increases and decreases their aperture in response to light.

 

Find the CORRECT statements from the above graph.

i) Stomatal aperture increases when the green light is turned off, and close when the green light is turned on again

ii) Stomata from the phototropin-less double mutant phot1/phot2 respond to blue light and open further when green light is turned off

iii) stomata from the zeaxanthin less mutant npq1 do not respond to blue light and least effect to opening of the stomata further when green light is turned off

iv) the npq1 mutant and phot1/phot2 double mutant response indicate that the green reversal of the blue-light response requires zeaxanthin but also phototropin

Doris Taylor’s research group used detergents to remove all the cells from a cadaveric rat heart, which leaves behind the natural extracellular matrix. An extracellular matrix scaffold can promote the differentiation and rebuilding of a beating heart. The researchers then infused this ECM scaffold with cardiomyocytes. Now these cells differentiated and organized into a functionally contracting “recellularized” heart. Which of the following statement is correct?

During Vulval induction in C. elegans, the anchor cell secretes, a paracrine factor which receives by VPCs and become vulva. If the anchor cell is destroyed, the VPCs will not form a vulva. This is the example of:
