For these organisms to develop into functional offspring of that species, which one of the following statements must be correct? J. Specific genes in each organism are turned on and/or off to enable cells to differentiate and express species specific characteristics K. All the organisms have the same genes and it is differential gene expression that determines the characteristics that will develop. L. Individuals of different species will turn on and off the same genes and this is why embryonic development looks the same in all animals. M. Different species have different genes, however, the same messages are sent and this explains why the embryos look the same in the early stages of development.

6. Refer to the following diagram which shows different stages of embryonic and foetal
development in a number of different organisms.
In the earlier stages of the embryonic development, the similarities between the organisms are
greater than later in the development process.
In the organisms shown, all the organisms develop from a fertilised egg cell.
