Answer to Question 1

 Maturation of the commodity
 Physical injuries
 Diseases
 Temperature extremes (either too high or low)
 Water stress

Answer to Question 2

The key steps in the ethylene biosynthetic pathway are as follows:
S-adenosylmethionine (AdoMet) is converted to 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic
acid (ACC) via the enzyme ACC synthase. ACC has two fates:
 The conversion to malonyl ACC (which is an inactive end product) via the enzyme
ACC N-malonyltransferase (ACC-NMtase)
 The conversion to ethylene via the enzyme ACC oxidase
