How does incomplete dominance differ from incomplete penetrance?

#SCPH01 Biochemistry
  1. Incomplete dominance refers to alleles at the same locus; incomplete penetrance refers to alleles at different loci.

  2. Incomplete dominance ranges from 0% to 50%; incomplete penetance ranges from 51% to 99%.

  3. In incomplete dominance, the heterozygote is intermediate to the homozygotes; in incomplete penetrance, heterozygotes express phenotypes of both homozygotes.

  4. In incomplete dominance, the heterozygote is intermediate to the homozygotes; in incomplete penetrance, some individuals do not express the expected phenotype

The insect ingests plant tissue containing the fatty acids, an enzyme in the gut conjugates the plant-derived fatty acid to an insect-derived amino acid to form an elicitor, When plants recognize elicitors from insect saliva induces some typical responses such as

a) Increasing Ca2+ levels in the cytosol and then activate an array of target proteins, such as calmodulin and other Ca2+-dependent protein kinases

b) In Arabidopsis, a calmodulin-binding transcriptional regulator called IQD1 was identified as an important mediator of defense responses against insect herbivory

c) overexpression of IQD1 in Arabidopsis activate the herbivore activity

d) IQD1 binds calmodulin, a major Ca2+-binding protein, in a Ca2+-dependent manner and subsequently inhibits the gene involved in glucosinolate biosynthesis

Which of the following combination from above statements is correct?

Hormonal interactions contribute to plant–insect herbivore interactions such as— ethylene, salicylic acid, and jasmonic acid. In particular, ethylene appears to play an important role in this context, what will be the effect of ethylene when is applied alone and when is applied with other amino acids?

a) ethylene applied together with JA it seems to reduces defense responses

b) Ethylene appears to applied alone to plants, ethylene has little effect on defense-related gene activation

c) when ethylene applied together with JA it seems to enhance JA responses or defense responses are significantly increased

d) Ethylene appears to applied alone to plants, ethylene has more effect on defense-related gene activation

Which of the following combination is correct about ethylene effects?
