Hybrid receptor with ligand-binding domain of X and DNA-binding domain of Y will activate

Genes of Y with hormone X, is consistent with established principles of cell signaling, receptor pharmacology and cellular regulation. Experimental measurements of binding parameters, genetic loss-of-function studies and pharmacological interventions all converge on the same interpretation. Related options address neighboring concepts but do not satisfy the precise criterion stated in the question.

Upon BR binding, BRI1 heterodimerizes with:

Correct option is B, BAK1. In Brassinosteriod problems like this, the accurate statement is BAK1; the others are common mix-ups. Not these: A) BIN2; C) BSU1; D) PP2A. Tissue transport questions usually turn on xylem vs phloem, living vs dead cells, or source vs sink.
