Explanation:
The homeotic genes refer to evolutionarily conserved genes that modulate the development of different structures in organisms of the same groups (in this case, plants). Moreover, homeobox genes are genes that encode transcription factors involved in the regulation of development in eukaryotic organisms. The knotted1 (<em>kn1</em>) gene is a plant homeobox gene is a member of the <em>kn1</em> homeobox (<em>knox</em>) gene family, which is responsible for maintaining indeterminacy and preventing cellular differentiation. In maize, <em>kn1</em> plays a key role in maintaining the cells of the shoot apical meristem in an undifferentiated state, being mainly expressed in shoot meristems during postembryonic stages of shoot development. It has been observed that maize mutant plants where <em>kn1</em> is ectopically expressed (i.e., in tissues in which this gene is not normally expressed) exhibit proximal-distal patterning defects.
Active transport methods:
- symport - across one protein, two molecules are transported in the same time and direction
- antiport - across one protein, two molecules are transported in opposite directions, which one enters into protein and one leaves it.
I hope I helped :D
