Nod factors are recognized by the Nod factor receptor (NFR) in legumes, Upon binding to Nod factors, the NFR heterodimer initiates two main separate processes mediated by SYMRK such as;

a) A signaling pathway that facilitates the infection process itself

b) Activation of the symbiosis receptor-like kinase (SYMRK)

c) Activating an extracellular domain that includes a leucine rich repeat (LRR) region and an intracellular protein kinase domain

d) The activation of a set of genes that regulate the formation of root nodules

Which of the following are the two main separate processes of NFR heterodimer?

If the prokaryotic flagellum developed from assemblages of proteins that originally were not involved with cell motility but with some other function instead, then the modern prokaryotic flagellum is a(n)

In certain motile prokaryotes, dozens of different proteins comprise the motor that powers the prokaryotic flagellum. The motor has a complicated structure, and its various proteins interact to carry out its function. Based on Darwinʹs explanation for the existence of human eyes, how would he probably have explained the existence of such motors?

It has been found that certain proteins of the complex motor that drives bacterial flagella are modified versions of proteins that had previously belonged to plasma membrane pumps. This is evidence in support of the claim that

An explanation for the evolution of insect wings suggests that wings began as lateral extensions of the body that were used as heat dissipaters for thermoregulation. When they had become sufficiently large, these extensions became useful for gliding through the air, and selection later refined them as flight-producing wings. If this hypothesis is correct, insect wings could best be described as
