ROS using respiratory burst oxidase homolog (RBOH) or NADPH  oxidase for Self- generation mechanism by some other processes , which are involved in ROS generation such as,

A) The amino-terminal cytoplasmic domain of RBOH proteins contains four serines (Ser) that can be phosphorylated by CDPKs and two EF hands that can bind calcium directly 

B) As ROS generation such as  H2O2,  by putting electron for oxidising  oxygen into the free radicals, these electron generation by oxidising NADPH and FADH2 in the cytosolic carboxy terminal of RBOH protein

C) The elevation of calcium and ROS levels during the early stages of the stress response activates protein kinases and phosphatases

D) ROS activated Ca2+ channel leads to Ca2+  influx from apoplastic space  to cytosol

Early-acting stress sensors provide the initial signal for the stress response,  several possible examples of stress-sensing mechanisms that act early in the pathway have been identified. They include:

A) calcium channel (cyclic nucleotide-gated calcium channel) that senses changes in temperature

B) A kinase (SnRK1, a SNF1-related kinase 1) that senses energy depletion during stress

C) A plasma membrane histidine kinase (ATHK1) that senses osmotic stress

D) A leucine rich repeat receptor kinase (LRRK) protein (Srlk)

E) An endoplasmic reticulum transmembrane sensor inositol-requiring enzyme 1 (IRE1)

And activating several response after sensing these mechanisms;

i) activates hundreds of stress-response transcripts

ii) that functions as an upstream regulator of salinity responses in Arabidopsis

iii) that is required for acclimation to heat stress

iv) that is required for heat tolerance in plants

v) activates ABA-dependent and ABA-independent responses

Which of the following is the correct match the activating response with its sense mechanism;
