Multiple factors regulate flowering in Arabidopsis. FT mRNA is expressed in companion cells of the leaf vein in response to multiple signals, including day length, light quality, and temperature. FT moves in the phloem from leaves to the apical meristem. FT is unloaded from the phloem in the meristem and interacts with FD.

FT-FD complex activates multiple genes. Which of the following combination is correct?(SS)

In light reaction, the funneling of excitation from the antenna system toward the reaction centre has been shown,

a.) The excited-state energy of pigments increases with distance from the reaction centre; that is, pigments closer to the reaction centre are lower in energy than those farther from the reaction centre

b.) The energy gradient ensures that excitation transfer toward the reaction centre is energetically favorable and that excitation transfer back out to the peripheral portions of the antenna is energetically unfavourable

c.) Some energy is lost as heat to the environment by this process, but under optimal conditions almost all the excitation energy absorbed in the antenna complexes can be delivered to the reaction centre

d.) The excited-state energy of  pigments decreases with distance from the reaction centre
