The first step in polar transport is auxin influx. According to the model, auxin can enter plant cells from any direction by either of two mechanisms:

a) Passive diffusion of the protonated (IAAH) form across the phospholipid bilayer

b) Secondary active transport of the dissociated (IAA–) form via a 2H+–IAA– symporter

c) Active diffusion of the protonated (IAAH) form across the phospholipid bilayer

Find out the correct statements of about diffusion of IAA.

With respect to X-chromosome inactivation, which, if any, of the following statements are not correct? 

I. X-chromosome inactivation in mammals begins in the pre-implantation embryo 

II. In humans all diploid cells that carry two normal X-chromosomes are subject to a random pattern of X-inactivation. 

III. Once a decision has been made to inactivate an X chromosome (either the paternal or maternal X), all descendant cells show the same pattern of X-inactivation. 

IV. The inactivated X chromosome becomes a highly condensed Barr body in which genes are silenced across the length of the chromosome.
