Why the GS  and GOGAT is activated in light and while the AS is inhibited?

#Unit 6. System Physiology – Plant
  1. In presence of light and carbohydrate, GS and GOGAT activate so that plant can grow while AS is inhibited so that amino group will not be transported
  2. GS  and GOGAT is activated because they favor nitrogen assimilation into glutamine and glutamate, compounds that are rich in nitrogen and sufficiently stable for long-distance transport or longterm storage
  3. In presence of light and carbohydrate, GS and GOGAT activate so that amino group will be transported while AS is inhibited so that plant can’t grow
  4. AS is inhibited because it favor nitrogen assimilation into asparagine, a compound that is rich in carbon and participate in the synthesis of new plant materials

During  a  field  trip,  an  instructor  touched  a  moth  resting  on  a  tree  trunk.  The  moth  raised  its  forewings  to  reveal large eyespots on its hind wings. The instructor asked why the moth lifted its wings. One student answered that sensory  receptors  had  fired  and  triggered  a  neuronal  reflex  culminating  in  the  contraction  of  certain  muscles.  A second student responded that the behaviour might frighten predators. Which statement best describes these explanations?
