Following statements are regarding to apoptosis.
A. In the worm apoptotic pathway, CED-3 (caspase-9 in mammals) is a protease required to destroy cell components during apoptosis.
B. CED-4 (Apaf-1) was able to accelerate the autoproteolytic cleavage and activation of purified CED-9
C. Once EGL-1 causes dissociation of the CED-4/CED-9 complex, the released CED-4 dimer joins with three other CED-4 dimers to make an octamer, which then activates CED-3
D. Many apoptotic stimuli lead to damage of the outer mitochondrial membrane, causing release into the cytosol of several proteins that stimulate apoptosis. In particular, cytochrome c released from mitochondria activates Apaf-1, which in turn activates caspase-3 and 7.

When Lucifer yellow, a small dye, is injected into a neuron of the retina, neighboring neurons become rapidly labeled. If the retina is incubated in dopamine prior to Lucifer yellow injection, only the injected neuron becomes labeled. These findings suggest which of the following?
I. Neurons of the retina communicate via gap junctions.
II. Dopamine is transferred between cells via gap junctions.
III. Dopamine decreases the permeability of gap junctions.
