(B) Root exudates play a central role in recruiting beneficial microbes to form root nodules. (C) In root nodules, the bacteroids reduce N» to NH3/NH4" by nitrogenase. (D) The concentration of O inside the nodules is high. (E) If mineral nitrogen (N﹚ can satisfy the plant N demand, nodule formation is inhibited.

5.Which of the following events does NOT engage double﹣stranded break Tepair﹖ (A) Homologous recombination﹒ (B) Non-homologous end joining﹒ (C)CRISPR﹣Cas9 base editing﹒ (D) DNA topoisomerases I (E) DNA topoisomerases Ⅱ

6.Phototropism allows the plant to optimize photosynthetic light capture in the aerial portion. Which of the following descriptions of phototropism is correct? (A) The light on the left is red light; the concentration of auxin is higher on the R side (B) The light on the left is red light the concentration of auxin is higher on the F side (C) The light on the left is red light; the concentration of cytokinin is higher on the R side (D) The light on the left is blue light; the concentration of cytokinin is higher on the E side (E) The light on the left is blue light; the concentration of auxin is higher on the R side

7. Which description of Mycoplasma pneumoniae is NOT correct? (A) Tt is predominantly transmitted by human-to-human contact (B) It primarily affects mucosal areas of the respiratory tract. (C) It is inherently sensitive to penicillin. (D) Clinicians can treat the disease with macrolide or tetracycline classes of antibiotics (E) It has most frequently presented as community-acquired pneumonia.

8. According to new research, patients with long COVID –long-term symptoms like brain fog, fatigue, or memory loss in the months or years following COVID-19– can exhibit a reduction in circulating levels of serotonin. Which of the following descriptions is NOT correct﹖ (A) Serotonin is a neurotransmitter. (B) Serotonin is primarily produced in the GI tract (C) Serotonin levels could be restored through treatment with Serotonin precursors Or selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors. (D) Methionine is a building block for serotonin. When methionine absorption is reduced by persistent viral inflammation, serotonin is depleted. (E) The finding could link depression with cognitive impairment in Long COVID.

9. Celiac disease ( 麥麩不耐症 ﹚ is a T cell-driven intolerance to gluten ingestion in genetically predisposed people﹒ The gluten﹣derived T cell epitopes are proline﹣rich and thereby highly resistant to proteolytie degradation within the gastrointestinal tract. Which ofthe following descriptions is NOT correct? (A) Gluten is a mixture of water-insoluble prolamin protein﹒ (B) Prolamins constitute the significant endosperm storage proteins in mature cereal grains. (C) Upon gluten ingestion, proteases in the gastrointestinal tract degrade gluten proteins into peptides. (D) Increased prevalence of symptomatic celiac disease can be associated with gut microbiota changes and environmental modification. (E) The primary therapeutic approach for celiac disease is oral enzyme therapy, employing gluten-degrading enzymes.
