Flying foxes disperse the Cycad seeds if the seed sometimes get swallowed whole.
Explanation:
- Cycads are gymnosperms they do not have seeds enclosed in fruit. Therefore the bats are not attracted to cycad fruit.
- If the bats were susceptible to neurotoxin then they must not have been the frequent feeders of cycad seeds. Biomagnification of neurotoxin in flying fox is a widely researched topic.
- Beetles do not have an association with these bats thus the bats must not be assisting them as important pollinating agents.
Answer:
D. 4E-BP1 binding to elF4E prevents loading of the mRNA onto the ribosome.
Explanation
In eukaryotic organisms, the eIF4E translation initiation factor functions by directing the ribosomes to the 5'-terminal cap structure of the messenger RNA (mRNA) in order to start the translation. Moreover, phosphorylation is a posttranslational modification of specific amino acids on proteins that play diverse cellular functions by altering protein stability, location, and/or enzymatic activity. It has been shown that elF4E phosphorylation is increased in response to cellular stimuli that induce translation in the ribosomes (e.g., growth factors, hormones, etc). The eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E)-binding protein 1 (4E-BP1) is a repressor of mRNA translation which is phosphorylated and inactivated by growth factors and hormones, thereby inhibiting 4E-BP1 binding to elF4E and consequently activating translation.

Answer:
a) Kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species.
Explanation:
Kingdom is the broadest taxonomic category after domain as proposed by Linnaeus. The Linnaean hierarchy of taxon identifies species as the most specific taxon that include only those organisms that can interbreed to produce the fertile progeny.
Several species with some common features are placed in same genus while related genera are placed in same family. Likewise, related families are placed in same order and the related orders are placed in same phylum.
Hence, kingdom is the least specific or broadest taxon that includes all the related phyla while species is the most specific taxon that include only the organisms that can interbreed.
