Which of the following statement is correct regarding attachment of microtubule to the kinetochore?

#Unit 2. Cellular Organization
  1. Once a kinetochore is attached laterally or terminally to a microtubule, dynein-dynactin associates with the kinetochore to move the duplicated chromosome down the microtubule toward the spindle pole. This movement eventually results in an end-on attachment of the microtubule to one kinetochore.

  2. Once a kinetochore is attached laterally or terminally to a microtubule, kinesin associates with the kinetochore to move the duplicated chromosome down the microtubule toward the spindle pole. This movement eventually results in an end-on attachment of the microtubule to one kinetochore.

  3. Once a kinetochore is attached laterally or terminally to a microtubule, myosin associates with the kinetochore to move the duplicated chromosome down the microtubule toward the spindle pole. This movement eventually results in an end-on attachment of the microtubule to one kinetochore.

  4. Kinesin-13 provides the strongest force pulling the chromosome pair toward the more distant pole. This movement requires simultaneous shortening of the microtubule, which is enhanced by kinetochore-localized dynein-dynactin.

The systemic production of proteinase inhibitors in young tomato plants is triggered by a complex sequence of events such as;
1) Prosystemin is proteolytically processed to produce the short polypeptide called systemin
2) Systemin is then transported out of the wounded leaf via the phloem.
3) systemin is believed to bind to a site on the plasma membrane and initiate the biosynthesis of jasmonic acid
4) Wounded tomato leaves synthesize prosystemin, a large recursor protein
5) Systemin is released from damaged cells into the apoplast
6) Jasmonic acid eventually activates the expression of genes that encode proteinase inhibitors
