Ultrastructural studies have led to the characterization of two distinctive cytological

pathways of PCD in plants;

I) Vacuolar-type PCD

II) Hypersensitive response-type (HR-type) PCD

a) cytosol and all its organelles, including the plasma membrane, are completely brokendown

b) The vacuole loses water, resulting in marked cell shrinkage, contraction from the cell wall,

and nuclear DNA degradation

c) PCD occurs in leaves in response to microbial attack

d) cell wall is either partially or completely digested as well, as in endosperm tissue

e) Continued water loss from the cytosol leads to the breakdown of the plasma membrane

and the release of residual cellular contents into the apoplast

Given characterization of PCD pathway match with its type PCD?

While vacationing in a country that lacks adequate meat inspection, a student ate undercooked ground beef. Sometime later the student became easily fatigued, and lost body weight. At about the same time, whitish, flattened, rectangular objects full of small white spheres started appearing in his feces. Administration of niclosamide cured the problem. The student had probably been infected by a

While sampling marine plankton in a lab, a student encounters large numbers of fertilized eggs. The student rears some of the eggs in the laboratory for further study and finds that the blastopore becomes the mouth. The embryo develops into a trochophore larva and eventually has a true coelom. These eggs probably belonged to a(n)
