Simplified biosynthetic pathway for cytokinin biosynthesis followed given such steps;

a) isopentenyl transferase (IPT), is the addition of the isopentenyl side chain from DMAPP (dimethylallyl diphosphate) to an adenosine moiety (AMP)

b) iPRTP or iPRDP is converted to ZTP or ZDP respectively by cytochrome P450 monooxygenase  and eventually is converted to zeatin

c) The ribotide and riboside forms of trans-zeatin can be interconverted, and free transzeatin can be formed from the ribotide by the LONELY GUY (LOG) family of cytokinin

Which of the following steps is true of the cytokinin biosynthesis?

Terry detaches the snakelike organism from the fish and uses a knife to cut off its head. In doing so, its brain slides out onto the deck of the boat. Terry peers into the cut end of the head and notices that the brain had lain in a sort of pan-like structure that only partially surrounded the brain. What is the structure Terry is observing, and what is it made of?

Epinephrine binds to the same type of receptors in liver, fat, and smooth muscle cells. Yet in liver, glycogen breaks down; in fat, triacylglycerols break down; and smooth muscle cells relax. How can the same hormone produce three such different responses?
