In glycolysis, fructose 1,6-bisphosphate is converted to two products with a standard free-energy change (DG'°) of 23.8 kJ/mol.  Under what conditions (encountered in a normal cell) will the free-energy change (DG) be negative, enabling the reaction to proceed to the right?

In theory, auxin could increase the rate of proton extrusion by two possible mechanisms:

I) H+-ATPase activation

II) H+-ATPase synthesis

a) Auxin involves in the activation of ATP-driven proton-pump (H+-ATPase) indirectly

b) ABPs appear to be able to activate the plasma membrane H+-ATPase in the presence of auxin

c) Activity of the H+- ATPase is repressed by the C-terminal domain of the enzyme, which can block the catalytic site  in absence of auxin

d) The protein is synthesized on the rough endoplasmic reticulum and targeted via the secretory pathway to the plasma membrane

Find out the correct explanation of given mechanisms.
