Textbook Question
Chapter 50, Problem 9TYK
In the embryonic development of the eye:
a. the optic vesicle cells permanently adhere to each other to prevent movement, whereas the optic cup cells are very motile.
b. the optic cup induces the surface ectoderm to form the lens placode.
c. gradients determine that the ectoderm overlying the lens vesicle develops into the optic vesicle.
d. microtubules powered by myosins and microfilaments powered by dyneins move the eye components around in the head region.
e. cadherins function in the presence of calcium to allow the lens placode and optic cup to break apart.

Students have asked these similar questions
Researchers searched for an activator of neural tissue formation. What is the real pathway for this developmental phenomenon?
a. Neural tissue formation occurs via BMP inhibition by proteins secreted from the organizer.
b. Noggin activates ectoderm to become neural tissue.
c. Nodal activation induces mesoderm to make neural tissue.
d. Beta-catenin is required for formation of neural tissue.
Somites
a. begin forming at the tail end of the embryo and then move forward in a wavelike fashion.
b. are derived from endoderm.
c. develop into only one type of tissue per somite.
d. may vary in number from one species to the next.
Observations of the developing chick embryo reveal that skeletal muscles develop from the transplanted somites even though motor neurons innervating those muscles arise from chick neural crest cells. Based on these observations, what is MOST likely true?
A.
Neural crest cells differentiate into somites.
B.
Neural crest cells fuse with developing somite cells.
C.
Neural crest cells develop from migrating somite cells.
D.
Neural crest cells send projections into developing somites.

A. The lack of a plasma membrane means that pathogens and foreign substances can permeate the sperm and damage the DNA B. The lack of microtubules mean the sperm do not have tails and cannot swim to fertilize the egg C.
