Following statements are regarding to the FOXO3a protein.

A. In the presence of growth factors, FOXO3a is non phosphorylated and mainly localizes to the nucleus, where it activates transcription of several genes encoding pro-apoptotic proteins.

B. When growth factors are removed from the cells, PKB becomes active and phosphorylates FOXO3a.

C. Phosphorylated FOXO3a binds to cytosolic phosphoserine-binding protein 14-3-3 to bind FOXO3a and thus sequester it in the cytosol.

D. Dephosphorylated FOXO3a binds to cytosolic phosphoserine-binding protein 14-3-3 to bind FOXO3a and thus sequester it in the cytosol.

Pathogen evades plant by penetration of surface layers directly using mechanical pressure or enzymatic attack, some pass through natural openings, such as stomata or lenticels, and others only enter through wounded tissue. Once inside the plant, one of three main attack strategies is deployed specific feature of interaction given;
A) Necrotrophy
B) Biotrophy
C) Hemibiotrophy
i) where the plant cells remain alive throughout infection
ii) where the plant cells are killed in advance of infection 
iii) extensive plant tissue damage at initial stages
iv) where the pathogen initially keeps cells alive but at later stages of the infection, kills them
