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.

- EVOLUTION LINK What is the common ground between evolutionary biologists and developmental biologists who have adopted the perspective known as Evo Devo?arrow_forwardMany species look similar as embryos. What causes them to appear different as adults? Why does the study of development give insights into evolutionary relationships?arrow_forwardMost of what we know about animal development comes from studies in model organisms like C. elegans and D. melanogaster. Why are these studies useful for learning about human development? O a) The genes involved in development are evolutionarily conserved O b) Genes that are active in development of other animals are not likely to be active in human development Oc) Studies in model organisms are not useful for understanding human development O d) All animal development is the exactly same, including human developmentarrow_forward

How would you measure senescence? compare andcontrast the two basic theories on why senescence persists. For each, include assumptions,predictions, data and conclusions. What evidence/conclusions can be applied from the casestudy in life-history evolution on Virginia Opossums?arrow_forwardFirst, concerningthe evolution of development, what have been the changes in developmentalmechanisms that give rise to different phenotypes? A second question, closelyrelated to the first, is how do genetic differences among species map onto phenotypic differences? Third, what is the role of development in either constraining or enhancing evolutionary change in characters? That is, how does development affect “evolvability”? Fourth, how does developmental information help usidentify homologous characters, or even define homology? Finally, can understanding development help us understand the origin of novel characteristics?arrow_forward

Be sure to include specific species and their morphological features that support this hypothesis. Note: no copy, no plagiarism write your own words.arrow_forwardPeople who object to evolution sometimes assert that complex organs such as eyes are irreducibly complex, and therefore couldn't have arisen through evolution.
