According to ABCE model, sepals are specified by expression of:

Correct option is A, A + E. In ABCE & ABCDE MODEL +Synapdrgon flowering problems like this, the accurate statement is A + E; the others are common mix-ups. Not these: B) A + B + E; C) B + C + E; D) C + E. Tissue transport questions usually turn on xylem vs phloem, living vs dead cells, or source vs sink.

SEP1/SEP2/SEP3/SEP4 quadruple mutants show:

All organs converted to leaf-like structures (C) is correct here. This is core ABCE & ABCDE MODEL +Synapdrgon flowering: once you know the definition or pathway step, All organs converted to leaf-like structures is the clear fit. The wrong ones are A) Only sepals; B) Only petals; D) Only carpels. If the topic is about gradients or potentials, water/solutes move from higher to lower of the relevant quantity.
