Which of the following ecosystems would likely have the largest net primary productivity per hectare and why?

#Unit 10. Ecological Principles
  1. open ocean, because of the total biomass of photosynthetic autotrophs
  2. grasslandbecause of rapid growth, the small standing crop biomass that results from consumption by herbivores, and rapid decomposition
  3. tundra, because of the incredibly rapid period of growth during the summer season
  4. deep ocean, due to the high activity of chemoautotrophs at deep sea vents

Following figure regarding to regulatory network in the Arabidopsis shoot meristem stem-cell niche.

A. The transcription factor WUS is synthesized in the cell A and moves via plasmodesmata into cell B, where one of its functions is to induce expression of the CLV3.

B. The transcription factor CLV3 is synthesized in the cell A and moves via plasmodesmata into cell B, where one of its functions is to induce expression of the WUS.

C. Secreted CLV3 protein from cell B binds to the receptor protein kinase on the surface of cell A; there, it activates a signal that represses WUS transcription.

D. Secreted WUS protein from cell B binds to the receptor protein kinase on the surface of cell A; there, it activates a signal that represses CLV3 transcription.
