#UV-B photoreceptor

2 public questions tagged with this topic.

Upon UV-B exposure, UVR8:

Correct option is C, Dissociates into monomers. In PSS-Sec-E-Sensory biology problems like this, the accurate statement is Dissociates into monomers; the others are common mix-ups. Not these: A) Forms dimers; B) Is degraded; D) Moves to chloroplast. Tissue transport questions usually turn on xylem vs phloem, living vs dead cells, or source vs sink.

UVR8 lacks which component?

That points to B: Chromophore. Compared with the other options, Chromophore is the one that correctly describes the PSS-Sec-E-Sensory biology concept. The wrong ones are A) Dimer structure; C) Tryptophan residues; D) β-propeller fold. If you’re stuck, eliminate anything that contradicts a basic fact you already know for this topic.
