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?

Explain: Is the degenerating blastocoel visible in the frog gastrula? How much yolk protrudes through the blastopore of a frog gastrula How much yolk protrudes through the blastopore of a frog gastrula? Chickens lack a larval stage. How do they compensate for this?
Could it be that lineage-restricted multipotent stem cells are derived from acNeoblast and seeded throughout the flatworm prior to any injury?
In Deuterostomes, nutrient molecules (monomers) are taken in to the space between the endoderm and the ectoderm because... A) The ectoderm makes protein for movement B) The endoderm cells release hydrolytic enzymes that act on polymers C) The endoderm releases enzymes that conduct dehydration synthesis of proteins D) mRNA polymerase causes hydrolysis of DNA E) All are correct Explain why
