The developmental pattern of C. elegans is said to be mosaic because (a) development is controlled by gradients of morphogens (b) part of the embryo fails to develop if a founder cell is destroyed (c) some individuals are selffertilizing hermaphrodites (d) all development is controlled by maternal effect genes (e) apoptosis never occurs
