Chapter 47.3, Problem 4CC
Summary Introduction
To explain: The expected result, when zone of polarizing activity (ZPA) is removed from a limb bud and then a bead dripped in sonic hedgehog is placed in the center of the limb bud.
Concept introduction: The limb bud development is determined by two regions – the apical ectodermal ridge (AER) and the zone of polarizing activity (ZPA). The AER region determines the growth of a limb along the proximal-distal axis. The ZPA region determines the growth of the limb along the anterior-posterior axis.

Explain.arrow_forward1a.Discovery of genes controlling Gibberellic Acid (GA) synthesis and perception became very important during the Green Revolution, and remain important today. Why? Select one: a. Mutants with reduced GA levels are dwarfs. Many dwarf plants were important for the Green Revolution because the shorter plants can invest more energy into economically important parts like seeds (instead of stem length). b. Mutants with reduced GA levels are more resistant to herbivore damage (like caterpillars), increasing plant yields. c. Mutants with reduced GA levels allowed farmers to control fruit ripening more accurately. d. Mutants with reduced GA levels have increased photosynthesis 1b.
