Summary Introduction

Introduction:

The anterior-posterior (A/P) and dorsal-ventral (D/V) axes are determined by the chemicals called morphogens. Determination of these polarities is extremely vital as the body is then arranged accordingly.

In flies developing from eggs laid by a nanos−mother, development of the abdomen is inhibited.Flies developing from eggs that have no maternallysupplied hunchback mRNA are normal. Flies developing from eggs laid by a nanos− mother that alsohave no maternally supplied hunchback mRNA arenormal. If too much Hunchback protein accumulatesin the posterior of the egg, abdominal developmentis prevented.a. What do these findings say about the function ofthe Nanos protein and of the hunchback maternallysupplied mRNA?b. What do these findings say about the efficiency ofbiological processes that are subject to evolution?
The anterior structure of the Drosophila is promoted by which of the following events?* a. nanos proteins block the transcription of the caudal gene. b. caudal proteins promote the transcription of the bicoid gene. c. bicoid proteins promote transcription of the hunchback gene. d. hunchback proteins block the transcription of the caudal gene. The posterior structures of the Drosophila is promoted by which of the following events?* a. caudal proteins block the transcription of the bicoid gene. b. bicoid proteins block transcription of the hunchback gene. c. nanos proteins promote the transcription of the caudal gene. d. hunchback proteins promote the transcription of the caudal gene.
Master regulatory genes play critical roles in development. Predict the MOST likely fate of a fly embryo where master regulatory genes were nonfunctional due to mutation. A. Cell division would stop, and the embryo would halt development. B. The embryo would be a collection of undifferentiated cells because they never get the message that will send them down a determination pathway. C. The embryo would be a combination of differentiated and undifferentiated cells because, even in the absence of a functional master regulatory gene, some cells will differentiate on their own. D. The embryo would continue to develop, but there is a high probability that some limbs may end up in the wrong place in the adult.
