Question
Chapter 24.4, Problem 1CS
Summary Introduction
To predict: The expression of Hox gene related to the segmentation and development along the anteroposterior region.
Introduction: The Hox genes are homeotic genes that are present in all animals and play a significant role in development. These genes are expressed along the anteroposterior axis during the development of the embryo.

Topic: Developmental Biology
Give an analogy on how the concepts of determination and differentiation are seen in personal events in your life.
Answer the following:
More recently evolved organisms have modified the stages of embryological development. Would you expect early or late stages to be modified the most? Why?
The basic stages of embryological development are remarkably similar for a wide range of organisms. How would you explain such consistency?
As cells invaginate and move about, do they “know” where they are? If not, how is movement controlled? If so, how do they perceive their position.
Is parental care of a species a factor that affects embryological development? If so, how?
Discuss the differences between human and animal language development.
Please provide real examples for each!
