(Free Response) Phototropism is a phenomenon observed in plants. Phototropism is best described as a plant’s response to light. Auxin is a hormone and signaling molecule found in plants that promotes cell elongation. It is observed that auxin concentrations are lower in the parts of the plant that are closest to light. Auxin concentrations are higher in the parts of a plant that are in the shade.
Answer the following in the space provided.
Describe phototropism using what you know about signal transduction. Start with auxin as a signaling molecule.
Explain how altering the receptor would affect the signaling pathway.
Predict how a plant would respond to exposure to light on all sides of a growing stem.
Provide reasoning and justification for your prediction.

Neelaredoxin is a 15-kda protein that is a gene product common in anaerobic prokaryotes. it has superoxide-scavenging activity, and it is constitutively expressed. in addition, its expression is not further induced during its exposure to o2 or h2o2 (silva, g., et al. 2001. j. bacteriol. 183: 4413–4420). which of the following statements best describes neelaredoxin synthesis? a-neelaredoxin is produced at all times; levels are constant even when exposed to o2 or h2o2.b-neelaredoxin is produced at all times; exposure to o2 or h2o2 increases expression.c-neelaredoxin is produced at all times; exposure to o2 or h2o2 decreases or prevents expression.d-neelaredoxin is only produced when there is exposure to o2 or h2o2.
