Excluding leaf senescence, describe three instances of programmed cell death as a part of normal plant development.
Using the 'ABC model' of floral development, what would you expect the flowers of a mutant plant to look like if both A & B gene function had been destroyed?
Can you clearly type the answers to the all the parts to this question please a) What is the role of the LEAFY gene in floral development? (b) What is the phenotype of the leafy mutant? (c) Most of the ABC program genes are directly regulated by the transcription factor LEAFY (LFY). Still, LFY is expressed broadly throughout the floral meristem when the discrete A, B, and C domains are established. Discuss how this single broadly expressed transcription factor can generate distinct domains of ABC gene expression. Feel free to use diagrams.

15. The sticky cinquefoil (Potentilla glandulosa) is a small, deciduous plant with bright yellow flowers that lives throughout the American West, and its leaf phenotype can vary depending on environmental conditions. Inland, where there are dramatic seasonal temperature swings and unpredictable droughts, plants shed their large “summer leaves” in autumn when the temperature begins to drop. In the spring new leaves are smaller and develop in a compact rosette. This phenotype persists for several months and is thought to be an adaptation that makes the plants drought-resistant (because less water evaporates from reduced leaf surfaces). By contrast, the leaves of P. glandulosa plants growing in a coastal climate are always large. In their habitat, seasonal temperature swings are not as great and the annual cycle of winter rain and summer drought is highly predictable. Suppose you decide to explore the hypothesis that the coastal population is genetically capable of exhibiting the same seasonal shift in leaf morphology as the inland plants. Would you need access to a greenhouse where you can control variables, or would it be just as easy to do experiments in the wild? Explain your reasoning and outline your experimental design—including the variable or variables you will test in the first experiment.
What is a homeobox gene? Give at least two examples of plant tissues such genes might govern in a species such as A. thaliana.
Can you answer part a-c if its true or false a) the AP3 and PI show auto- and cross-regulatory interactions, as well as they form obligate heterodimers to carry out the B class gene function. Therefore, if there is no PI expression, AP3 expression alone is not sufficient for establishing the petal and stamen identities. b) Angiosperm is a group of plants whose seeds are borne within a mature ovary (fruit). c) The organ in different organisms under every variety of forms and functions due to evolutionary development from the same or a corresponding part in a common ancestor is homologous.
