VERNALIZATION & FLOWERING+PYQS

FT protein is synthesized mainly in:

Pick C: Leaves. Thinking through VERNALIZATION & FLOWERING step by step rules out the lookalikes and leaves Leaves. Skip these: A) Roots; B) Shoot apical meristem; D) Flowers. For hormones and genes, match the molecule or gene to its real role, not a neighboring pathway.

VERNALIZATION & FLOWERING+PYQS

Which gene directly acts as florigen in Arabidopsis?

FT (B) is correct here. This is core VERNALIZATION & FLOWERING: once you know the definition or pathway step, FT is the clear fit. The wrong ones are A) CO; C) FD; D) FLC. If the topic is about gradients or potentials, water/solutes move from higher to lower of the relevant quantity.
