Choose correct statements about recognition mechanism of TBP ;

A. TBP causes the minor groove to be widened to an almost flat conformation

B. It also bends the DNA by an angle of ~120o

C. The interaction between TBP and DNA involves maximum number of hydrogen bonds between the protein and the edges of the base.

D. Much of the specificity is imposed by two pairs of phenylalanine side chains that intercalate between the base pairs at either end of the recognition sequence and drive the strong bend in the DNA.

The herbaceous plant Achillea lanulosa is widespread in the Northern Hemisphere. Phenotypic variation in the species has been extensively studied along an altitudinal gradient from sea level to over 3,000 meters. In California there is conspicuous variation in  height; alpine plants are only several centimeters tall  while  those in  the San Joaquin Valley may reach a height of 1.8 meters. Adaptation to different local environments also results in variation in physiological processes such as photosynthetic rate, resistance to cold, and the timing of dormancy.

The genetic polymorphism found in Achillea lanulosa is most likely maintained primarily by
