Following statements are regarding to the molecular basis of the coincidence model in Arabidopsis.

A. In Arabidopsis under short days, there is little overlap between CO mRNA expression and daylight.

B. CO protein does not accumulate to sufficient levels in the phloem to promote the expression of the transmissible floral stimulus and the plant remains vegetative.

C. Under long days, the peak of CO mRNA abundance (at hours 12 through 16) overlaps with daylight (sensed by phyA and cryptochrome [cry]), allowing CO protein to accumulate.

D. CO activates FLC mRNA expression in the phloem, which causes flowering when the FT protein is translocated to the apical meristem.

A 24-year-old man came into the ER with a broken leg. A blood test was ordered and his WBC count was 22 × 10^3/μl. Five hours later, a second blood test resulted in values of 7 × 10^3/μl. What is the cause of the increased WBC count with the first test?

Prairie dogs once covered the expanses of the Great Plains. Their grazing made the grass more nutritious for the huge herds of bison, and a variety of snakes, raptors, and mammals   preyed on the rodents. In fact, the black- footed ferret (now endangered) specialized in prairie dog predation. Today, growing housing and agricultural developments have covered many prairie dog towns. Which of the following statements about prairie dogs is true?
