Choose the incorrect statements about photosynthesis dark reaction ?

#Unit 6. System Physiology – Plant
  1. The light dependent enzymes which are activated by Ferredoxin–thioredoxin system, contain oxidised di-sulfide bonds (—S—S—) in its active form
  2. C3 cycle or Calvin–Benson cycle is regulated by Photosystem I
  3. The activation of enzymes of the Calvin– Benson cycle starts in the light with the reduction of ferredoxin by the photosynthetic electron transport chain (Chl)
  4. The series of Ferredoxin–thioredoxin system in presence of light is,  2 Ferredoxin (oxidized) to 2 Ferredoxin (reduced)→ Trx(s−s) to Trx(SH) → Ferredoxin– thioredoxin reductase (s−s) to Ferredoxin– thioredoxin reductase(SH)→ Enzyme (inactive)(s−s) to Enzyme (active)(SH)

With respect to microRNAs, which, if any, of the following statements, is false?

a) A microRNA normally works by binding to perfectly complementary sequences within an RNA transcript, usually an mRNA.

b) Like the great majority of mRNAs an miRNA is usually produced as a larger precursor RNA that is capped and has a 3’ poly(A) tail.

c) The precursor miRNA undergoes different types of post-transcriptional cleavage by endoribonucleases that are specific for double-stranded target sequences.

d) A nuclear endoribonuclease called dicer cleaves the miRNA precursor so that it forms a stem-loop RNA.
