#SCPH28 | Zoology
  1. how widely the organisms assigned to each are distributed throughout the environment
  2. their inclusiveness
  3. the relative genome sizes of the organisms assigned to each
  4. morphological characters that are applicable to all organisms

Following are certain strategies used by pathogen to attack over the host plant that describe plant-pathogen interactions:

                      I                                                                                             II

A. Necrotrophic pathogens                              i) most of the plant tissue remains alive and only minimal cell damage can be observed, as the pathogens feed on substrates provided by their host

B. Biotrophic pathogens                                 ii) In which the host cells are kept alive as described for biotrophic  Pathogens and followed by a necrotrophic stage, in which the pathogens can cause extensive tissue damage

C. Hemibiotrophic pathogens                         iii) attack their host by secreting cell wall–degrading enzymes or toxins, which eventually kill the affected plant cells, leading to extensive tissue maceration. This dead tissue is then colonized by the pathogens and serves as a food source

Ultrastructural studies have led to the characterization of two distinctive cytological
pathways of PCD in plants;
I) Vacuolar-type PCD
II) Hypersensitive response-type (HR-type) PCD
a) cytosol and all its organelles, including the plasma membrane, are completely brokendown
b) The vacuole loses water, resulting in marked cell shrinkage, contraction from the cell wall,
and nuclear DNA degradation
c) PCD occurs in leaves in response to microbial attack
d) cell wall is either partially or completely digested as well, as in endosperm tissue
e) Continued water loss from the cytosol leads to the breakdown of the plasma membrane
and the release of residual cellular contents into the apoplast
Given characterization of PCD pathway match with its type PCD?

Please arrange the following steps about ELIZA (Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) in chronological order
i. incubate with antibody-enzyme complex that binds primary antibody
ii. coat surface with antigen, block unoccupied sites with nonspecific protein
iii. add substrate, formation of colored product indicates presence of specific antigen
iv. incubate with primary antibody against specific antigen
