The most critical difference between global nucleotide excision repair (NER) and transcription-coupled repair (TCR) is:

A. the initiation step; in NER the XPC protein recognizes the damage but in TCR it is the RNA polymerase that recognizes the damage. B. the excision step; NER uses UvrC (exinuclease) to nick the DNA but TCR uses the AP endonuclease. C. the removal step; NER uses UvrD (helicase) to unwind and release the damaged strand but in TCR the damaged strand is degraded by Pol I. D. the final step; NER uses Pol I and ligase to fill the gap but TCR uses Pol III and ligase. E. None of the choices given is correct.

Which statement best reflects the current understanding of pollen tube elongation?

a. It is not even known if pollen tube growth uses chemical signals or is completely random. b. Pollen tube elongation will occur as long as the pistil provides moisture and energy. c. While it is known that chemical cues from female tissues help guide pollen tube growth, the identity of these chemicals is not known. d. Nearly all of the details of the chemical interactions between the pollen tube and pistil tissue are known.
