NH4+ is toxic to plants, inhibit dinitrogenase and also interfere energy metabolism by dissociating ATP formation from ETC in both mitochondria and chloroplasts. What will plant cells do to avoid this problem?
a) Plant cells avoid ammonium toxicity by rapidly converting the ammonium generated from nitrate assimilation or photorespiration into nitrate
b) Plant cells avoid ammonium toxicity by rapidly converting the ammonium generated from nitrate assimilation or photorespiration into amino acids
c) The pathway for this conversion involves the sequential actions of glutamine synthetase (GS) and glutamate synthase (GOGAT)
d) The pathway for this conversion involves the sequential actions of Aspartate aminotransferase (Asp-AT) and Asparagine synthetase (AS)

Gibberellin is an important plant hormone that regulates
several aspects of plant growth and development. Some statements are given
below in relation to signalling
pathways:
a) The binding of gibberellin (GA) to its receptor leads to
the degradation of the DELLA repressor by the 26S proteasome
b) Gibberellin binds to the GID1 receptor and induces a
conformational change in the N-terminal domain of the receptor, allowing the
receptor to interact with the TVHYNP and DELLA domains of the DELLA repressor
c) The formation of the GID1-repressor complex promotes the
interaction between the repressor and the E3 ubiquitin ligase SCFTIR1 complex,
leading to the ubiquitination and degradation
d) The gibberellin receptor GIBBERELLIN INSENSITIVE DWARF 1
(GID1) also itself function as an F-box protein
Which one of the following is the incorrect statements about GA signalling pathway;
