Blue light activates a proton pump at the guard cell plasma membrane. The relationship between proton pumping at the guard cell plasma membrane and stomatal opening is evident from the observations that;

 a.) Orthovandate inhibits the fusicoccin-stimulated opening

 b.) fusicoccin stimulates both proton extrusion from guard cell protoplasts and stomatal opening

 c.) CCCP inhibits the fusicoccin-stimulated opening

 d.) CCCP, a proton ionophore that makes the plasma membrane highly permeable to protons resulting stomatal opening

 Which one of the following observation from the above statements should  be correct?

Some given  statements about biosynthesis of Abscisic acid ;
a) ABA is synthesized in almost all cells that contain chloroplasts or amyloplasts
b) ABA is a 15-carbon terpenoid, or sesquiterpenoid, which is synthesized in plants by an indirect pathway via 40-carbon carotenoid intermediates
c) Cleavage of the carotenoid by the enzyme NCED (9-cis-epoxycarotenoid dioxygenase) is a rate-limiting
d) Oxidation by ABA-8′-hydroxylases lead to ABA inactivation, ABA can also be inactivated by conjugation, but this is irreversible. Both types of inactivation are also tightly regulated.
