This feature is an adaptive, as the redistribution of
chloroplasts within the cells modulates light absorption and prevents
photodamage, diagram shows of chloroplast distribution patterns in Arabidopsis
palisade cells in response to different light intensities;
m) A-low light, B-high light, C-darkness
n) A-high light, B-darkness, C-low light
Based on the above light intensities, each shows
different chloroplasts position such as,
i) chloroplasts avoid sunlight by migrating to the
side walls of palisade cells
ii) chloroplasts move to the bottom of the cell,
although the physiological function of this position is unclear
iii) chloroplasts optimize light absorption by
accumulating at the upper and lower sides of palisade cells
Which of the following correct combinations shows light intensities and chloroplast movements?

COLUMN II |
|
A) Physical sensing
|
i) usually results from the
detection of by-products that accumulate in cells due to the uncoupling of
enzymatic or electron transfer reactions, such as the accumulation of ROS
during stress caused by too much light.
|
|
B) Biophysical sensing
|
ii) often involves the presence of
specialized proteins that have evolved to sense a particular stress; for
example, calcium channels that can sense changes in temperature and alter
Ca2+ homeostasis.
|
|
C) Metabolic sensing
|
iii) refers to modifications of
DNA or RNA structure that do not alter genetic sequences, such as the changes
in chromatin that occur during temperature stress.
|
|
D) Biochemical sensing
|
iv) refers to the mechanical
effects of stress on the plant or cell structure, for example, the
contraction of the plasma membrane from the cell wall during drought stress.
|
|
E) Epigenetic sensing
|
v) might involve changes in
protein structure or enzymatic activity, such as the inhibition of different
enzymes during heat stress.

Two pure line of corn have mean cob length of 15 cm and 5 cm, respectively. 6 polygenes involved in this trait exhibit additive gene action. Crossing these two lines is expected to produce a progeny population with mean cob length of
