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.
