Out of these which of the following is true regarding the propensity of α-helix.

a. any amino acid which can take up desirable ϕ and ψ angle close to -57 and -47 will favour the formation of a α-helix

b. amino acid such a proline and glycine have lowest propensity will favour formation of α-helix.

c. if the resultant change in the value ΔΔG0 is positive then it will favour the formation of α-helix.

d. if the resultant change in the value ΔΔG0 is zero or close to zero then it will favour the formation of α-helix.

According to a recent model, the balance between the activities of ABA and gibberellin in seeds is under both developmental and environmental control such as

a) early stages of seed development, ABA sensitivity is high and gibberellin sensitivity is low, which favors dormancy over germination

b) Later in seed development, ABA sensitivity declines and gibberellin sensitivity increases, favoring germination.

c) Environmental factors such as temperature  and light affect the ABA:GA ratios by activation of the  NCED and GA2ox enzyme, which promotes seed dormancy

d) During an Ambient environment, activation of GA3ox and CYP707A2 inducing dormancy
