Which statement best describes the evolution of pesticide resistance in a population of insects?

#Unit 11. Evolution and Behavior
  1. Individual members of the population slowly adapt to the presence of the chemical by striving to meet the new challenge.

  2. All insects exposed to the insecticide begin to use a formerly silent gene to make a new enzyme that breaks down the insecticide molecules.

  3. Insects observe the behavior of other insects that survive pesticide application, and adjust their own behaviors to copy those of the survivors.

  4. Offspring of insects that are genetically resistant to the pesticide become more abundant as the susceptible insects die off.

Nod factors are recognized by the Nod factor receptor (NFR) in legumes, Upon binding to Nod factors, the NFR heterodimer initiates two main separate processes mediated by SYMRK such as;

a) A signaling pathway that facilitates the infection process itself

b) Activation of the symbiosis receptor-like kinase (SYMRK)

c) Activating an extracellular domain that includes a leucine rich repeat (LRR) region and an intracellular protein kinase domain

d) The activation of a set of genes that regulate the formation of root nodules

Which of the following are the two main separate processes of NFR heterodimer?
