Researchers have investigated bidirectional transport by applying two different radiotracers to two source leaves, one above the other. Researcher wanted to see how bidirectional transport happens in sieve elements. Which one of the following is INCORRECT interpretation for bidirectional transport?

#Unit 6. System Physiology – Plant
  1. Transport in two directions has often been detected in sieve elements of different vascular bundles in stems
  2. Transport in two directions has also been seen in adjacent sieve elements of the same bundle in petioles
  3. simultaneous bidirectional transport in a single sieve element has also been demonstrated
  4. Bidirectional transport in adjacent sieve elements can occur in the petiole of a leaf that is undergoing the transition from sink to source and simultaneously importing and exporting photosynthates through its petiole

Statement: When phosphorylated, CREB binds to CREs near certain genes and acts as a transcription factor, turning on the expression of these genes.

Explanation: I-Regulation can result from phosphorylation of Nuclear transcription factor

II- Activation of a protein kinase in the nucleus that phosphorylates specific DNA-binding proteins and thereby alters their ability to act as transcription factors.

The sequence of transcriptional activation events at a typical Pol II promote

I- Mediator facilitates the binding of TBP (or TFIID) and TFIIB, and the other basal transcription factors and Pol II then bind.

II- Activators bind the DNA.

III-The activators recruit the histone modification/nucleosome remodeling complexes and a coactivator such as Media.

IV- Phosphorylation of the carboxyl-terminal domain (CTD) of Pol II leads to transcription initiation.

Some steroid hormone receptors function in the nucleus as transcription activators, stimulating the transcription of certain genes when a particular steroid hormone signal is present. When the hormone is absent, the receptor proteins revert to a repressor conformation, preventing the formation of PICs. It is an example of;
