Question
The evolution / development of the skeletal system of the vertebrate is an example of the process of cellular specialization. This refers to the fact? a) all the ectoderm cells remain the same b) the cells derived from the endoderm to form osteocytes that secrete collagen c) the cells of the endoderm form chondrocytes that become notochord d) genes are activated or surpressed in the cells from the original mesoderm causing them to become chondrocytes and osteocytes the stem cells that sequentially produce the componets of the skeleton e) genes are not involved in this function?

Which of the following had to have been true for natural selection to have favored the original evolution of limbs? A) Closely related lineages that remained in the ocean must have gone extinct. There must have been differences in survival and or/reproduction based on size, musculature, bones or other (B functional aspects of early limbs. Large predators must have been a major source of mortality for populations that spent more time in the water and less on land. The ability of some ancestral fish-tetrapod transitional forms to move from one body of water to another during D droughts must have led to decreased mortality. E There must have been less competition for food on land.arrow_forward
