Question
Chapter 19.2, Problem 2R
Summary Introduction
To review:
A situation where an artificial, impermeable membrane were placed between anchor cell and underlying cells of the developing nematode.
Introduction:
The nematode also known as Caenorhabditis elegans is a hermaphrodite animal. A hermaphrodite may be defined as an organism having both male and female reproductive parts in the same body. They lay eggs with the help of a small opening called vulva, which is present on the lower surface of the body. The whole body is developed from a specialized cell, which is known as anchor cell.
