Pax-6 usually causes the production of a type of light-receptor pigments. In vertebrate eyes, though, a different gene (the rh gene family) is responsible for the light-receptor pigments of the retina. The rh gene, like Pax-6, is ancient. In the marine ragworm, for example, the rh gene causes production of c-opsin, which helps regulate the wormʹs biological clock. Which of these most likely accounts for vertebrate vision?

The COP1-SPA complex acts as a positive regulator as well as acts as negative regulator  by shown in statements;

a) Act as negative regulator−that targets transcription factors for degradation during phytochrome and cryptochrome responses

b) Acts as a positive regulator−that targets transcription factors for degradation during phytochrome and cryptochrome responses

c) Acts as a negative regulator− during UV-B signaling by interacting with the C-terminal region of UVR8 in the nucleus UVR8- COP1-SPA complex then activates the major transcription factor HY5, which controls the expression of many of the genes induced by UV-B

d) Acts as a positive regulator during UV-B signaling by interacting with the C-terminal region of UVR8 in the nucleus UVR8- COP1-SPA complex then activates the major transcription factor HY5, which controls the expression of many of the genes induced by UV-B

Whichof the following combination from avbove statements of UVR8 is true?

In Arabidopsis, phot1 mutants have a normal avoidance response and a poor accumulation response, phot2 mutants lack the avoidance response but retain a fairly normal accumulation response, while phot1/phot2 double mutant lack both the avoidance and accumulation responses. These results indicate that,
