Ethylene insensitive mutants include:

Pick B: etr1. Thinking through Ethylene step by step rules out the lookalikes and leaves etr1. Skip these: A) ctr1; C) ebf1 ebf2; D) ein3 overexpression. For hormones and genes, match the molecule or gene to its real role, not a neighboring pathway.

Mutant showing constitutive triple response is:

Go with C — ctr1. Under Ethylene, this is the standard explanation you’d use in class: it names the real driver or definition, while the rest are nearby but wrong. Not these: A) etr1; B) ein2; D) ebf1. When two options sound similar, choose the one that matches the textbook definition most tightly.
