WRKY plant-specific group of transcription factors that play important role in many plant metabolic and developmental processes such as;

a) It contain a 30 amino acid region named for the conserved amino acid sequence WRKYGQK in its N-terminal domain

b) It is an important regulators of plant–pathogen interactions as well as senescence

c) WRKY53 is involved in the regulation of dark-induced leaf senescence

d) In Arabidopsis, leaf senescence is delayed in knockout mutants of the WRKY53 gene

e) WRKY53 also binds to the promoter of the WRKY53 gene, inhibiting its own expression in a negative feedback loop

Which of the following given prediction about WRKY transcription factor is correct?

A 45-year-old man presents with abdominal pain and hematemesis. An abdominal exam was relatively benign, and abdominal x-rays were suggestive of a perforated viscus. Endoscopy revealed a chronically perforated gastric ulcer, through which the liver was visible. Which of the following is a forerunner to gastric ulcer formation?

A tsunami tidal wave hits the east coast of South America and the people living there are forced to drink unclean water. Within the next several days, a large number of people develop severe diarrhea and about half of these people expire. Samples of drinking water are positive for Vibrio cholerae. Which of the following types of ion channels is most likely to be irreversibly opened in the epithelial cells of the crypts of Lieberkühn in these people with severe diarrhea?
