Gibberellin is an important plant hormone that regulates several aspects of plant growth and development. Some statements are given below in relation to  signalling pathways:

a) The binding of gibberellin (GA) to its receptor leads to the degradation of the DELLA repressor by the 26S proteasome

b) Gibberellin binds to the GID1 receptor and induces a conformational change in the N-terminal domain of the receptor, allowing the receptor to interact with the TVHYNP and DELLA domains of the DELLA repressor

c) The formation of the GID1-repressor complex promotes the interaction between the repressor and the E3 ubiquitin ligase SCF^TIR1 complex, leading to the ubiquitination and degradation

d) The gibberellin receptor GIBBERELLIN INSENSITIVE DWARF 1 (GID1) also itself function as an F-box protein

During an experiments mutating the conserved cysteine in the LOV1 domain of phot1 does not affect phototropic responsiveness (the seedlings bend toward blue light) whereas the equivalent mutation in LOV2 abolishes the response. What will be the conclusion has been drawn from this experiments?

a)  LOV1 domain is secondarily responsible (primarily responsible is LOV2 domain) for kinase activation and LOV1 is not is coupled with the protein region Jα-helix that’s why it does not affect phototropic responsiveness

b) These studies have demonstrated that LOV2 domain is primarily responsible for kinase activation in response to blue light

c) This is due in part to the position of LOV2 within the phototropin molecule, where it is coupled to a protein region known as the Jα-helix

d) The function of LOV2 domain is thought to play a role in receptor dimerization by accomplishing the kinase activation in response to blue light

Which of the correct conclusion drawn from the above experiment?
