In Arabidopsis, FLD (a deacetylase enzyme) stimulates flowering. Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A) FLD deacetylates histones that bind to regions of the FLC gene and stimulates its transcription.
B) FLD deacetylates histones surrounding the FLD gene, causing suppression of FLD transcription.
C) FLD deacetylates histones that bind to the FLC gene, causing repression of FLC transcription.
D) FLD causes repression of FLC translation.
