During ammonium assimilation, requires two enzymes converting ammonium to amino acids. Each of which is Glutamine synthetase (GS), given below some statements about GS ;

a) GS transfers the amide group of glutamine to 2-oxoglutarate, yielding two molecules of glutamate

b) it requires a divalent cation such as Mg2+, Mn2+, or Co2+ as a cofactor

c) Plants contain two classes of GS, one in the cytosol and the other in root plastids or shoot chloroplasts

d) The cytosolic forms are expressed in germinating seeds or in the vascular bundles of roots and shoots and produce glutamate for intercellular nitrogen transport

e) The GS in root plastids generates amide nitrogen for local consumption; the GS in shoot chloroplasts reassimilates photorespiratory NH4+

f) Light and carbohydrate levels alter the expression of the cytosolic forms of the enzyme, but they have little effect on the plastid forms.

Following statements are regarding to the centrosome cycle of an animal cell.
A. During G1, the daughter procentrioles continue to elongate.
B. During S phase, daughter procentrioles form adjacent to maternal centrioles so that two pairs of centrioles become visible within the centrosome. 
C. During G2 phase, the centrosome contains a single pair of centrioles.
D. At the beginning of mitosis, the centrosome splits, with each pair of centrioles becoming part of its own centrosome. As they separate, the centrosomes organize the microtubule fibres that make up the mitotic spindle.
