Simplified biosynthetic pathway for cytokinin biosynthesis followed given such steps;

a) isopentenyl transferase (IPT), is the addition of the isopentenyl side chain from DMAPP (dimethylallyl diphosphate) to an adenosine moiety (AMP)

b) iPRTP or iPRDP is converted to ZTP or ZDP respectively by cytochrome P450 monooxygenase  and eventually is converted to zeatin

c) The ribotide and riboside forms of trans-zeatin can be interconverted, and free transzeatin can be formed from the ribotide by the LONELY GUY (LOG) family of cytokinin

Which of the following steps is true of the cytokinin biosynthesis?

As a young biologist, Charles Darwin had expected the living plants of temperate South America would resemble those of temperate Europe, but he was surprised to find that they more closely resembled the plants of tropical South America. The biological explanation for this observation is most properly associated with the field of
