I help you get correct answer if you question
The correct answer is the last statement.
If the regulatory serine is mutated to alanine, then acetyl-CoA carboxylase will get activated spontaneously and will produce malonyl-CoA. The increased concentrations of malonyl-CoA will obstruct the oxidation of fatty acids by preventing the entry of fatty acids into the mitochondria.
It is because the AMP-activated protein kinase phosphorylates the serine residues of acetyl-CoA carboxylase to inactivate it. If a mutation occurs in such residues, then the AMPL cannot phosphorylate acetyl-CoA carboxylase and this enzyme will get activated spontaneously.
In such a situation, there will be more than sufficient production of malonyl-CoA, which will inhibit the admittance of more fatty acid getting inside the mitochondria; this will indirectly prevent the oxidation of fatty acids.
Answer:
A hot air temperature outside of the plant will increase the transpiration rate the movement of water up the plant and out of the stomata so having fewer stomata will help to combat this. Plant species in very humid or wet environments Hydrophytes will have more stomata as there is less need to conserve water
