A) Describe the three steps (Reception, Transduction, Response) of de-etiolation (greening response) signal transduction in plants.

B) Describe a signal transduction (give the stimulus and response) that may occur in humans.

Expert Solution

Step 1

A stage of etiolation in plant can be elaborated as the presence of non-green plastids called the etioplasts in plant tissues that normally contain plastids. With illumination de-etiolation occurs that causes the transition of etioplast to chloroplast in leaves and at seedling level there is a switch to photomorphogenic growth.
