A chemiosmotic model  has been proposed  to explain Polar transport , following steps are involve in the transport of auxin polarly;

a) IAA enters the cell either passively in the undissociated form (IAAH) or by secondary active cotransport in the anionic form (IAA–)

b) The cell wall is maintained at an acidic pH by the activity of the plasma membrane H+- ATPase

c) In the cytosol, which has acidic pH, the IAAH form predominates

d) The anions exit the cell via auxin anion efflux carriers that are concentrated at the basal ends of each cell in the longitudinal pathway

Which of the following is the correct statements about the polarly transporting of auxin?

Some members of a photosynthetic plant species are genetically resistant to an herbicide, while other members of the same species are not resistant to the herbicide. Which combination of events should cause the most effective replacement of the non-herbicide-resistant strain of plants by the resistant strain?

1. The presence of the herbicide in the environment

2. The absence of the herbicide from the environment

3. The maintenance of the proper conditions for one generation

4. The maintenance of the proper conditions for many generations

In a hypothetical environment, fishes called pike-cichlids are visual predators of algae-eating fish (i.e., they locate their prey by sight). If a population of algae-eaters experiences predation pressure from pike-cichlids, which of the following should least likely be observed in the algae-eater population over the course of many generations?
