- What are the correct pairings of developing and embryonic structures in the gastrulation of chickens? a. Epiblast- ectoderm c. Primary hypoblast-endoderm Read the following statements CAREFULLY: I. II. III. IV. b. Secondary hypoblast - endoderm d. Migrating cells - mesoderm The germ band needs to retract for fruit fly segments to develop properly. The formation of the sea urchin archenteron is made possible by epithelial cells that underwent epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition. Frog gastrulation involves the epiboly of endoderm cells. Chicken endoderm and mesoderm is formed through the migration of cells through both the anterior and posterior end of the primitive streak. a. All choices are true b. I & Il are true but IV is false d. IV is sometimes true c. Ill is falsearrow_forwardUnchanging environments are advantageous to organismsa. that reproduce asexually.b. that undergo indirect development.c. in which fertilization occurs internally.d. that undergo pattern formation.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is false? a. Cadherins, but not integrins play a role in gastrulation. b. Gastrulation creates the primary germ layers c. Gastrulation requires cells to change their gene expression. d. Body axes are stabilized (made permanent) during gastrulation.arrow_forward
- During morphogenesis, gastrulation does which of the following?A. Gastrulation produces the ectoderm through formation of a blastocyst.B. Gastrulation produces the mesoderm to form the lining of the digestive tract.C. Gastrulation provides the mechanisms whereby cells can form the neural tube.D. Gastrulation produces the endoderm through invagination of the blastula.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements about gastrulation is correct? A. During gastrulation, the contents of cell nuclei begin to vary so that they can start to perform different fucntions. B. During gastrulation, cells differentiate so that they can start to perform different functions. C. The formation of the endoderm, mesoderm, and ectoderm occurs after gastrulation. D. The formation of the endoderm, mesoderm, and ectoderm occurs before gastrulation.arrow_forwardThe zona pellucida is important in mammals because it... a. induces polyspermy. b. induces compaction. c. inhibits implantation of the embryo until the embryo reaches the uterus. d. inhibits the formation of twins.arrow_forward
- Which of the following is not true about starfish eggs? Choose all possible answers a. eggs are fertilized prior to completion of the first meiotic divisions. b. eggs are generally less yolky and therefore cleave meroblastically. c. first two cleavage planes are meridional d. Each quartet (blastomeres) occupies a plane lying perpendicular to the animal-vegetal axis. e. All are true about the starfish eggs.arrow_forward1. Match the early embryo characteristics with the correct stage of development. Not all choices will be used a. ova (unfertilized egg) d. blastula e. gastrula b. zygote (fertilized egg) c. late cleavage/morula f. neurula Embryo is a hollow ball of cells Embryo is a single cell with a fertilization membrane Embryo is forming a notochord Embryo is a solid ball of cellsarrow_forwardThe embryos of complex multicellular animals must establish spatial coordinates if development is to proceed. An important reference coordinate for developing frogs is theA. location of the vegetal pole.B. location of the animal pole.C. point of sperm penetration.D. location where gastrulation begins.E. direction of the sun.arrow_forward
- A. Water currents in the ocean are much stronger than any sperm. How do sperm and egg find each other? B. In humans there are no water currents and the volume of the female reproductive tract is relatively limited. Then, why does the male have so many sperm? C. Why do sea urchins have external fertilization? D. Then why don't the parents take care of the young? E. Because the urchin life involves two or more ecological niches, they are more susceptible to predation and exposure to environmental toxins. What environmental conditions, predators and toxins might they be exposed to at each stage?arrow_forwardIf cells from the presumptive neural ectoderm of a frog gastrula are transplanted onto the surface of a second gastrula where skin would normally develop, the transplanted cells will still develop into tissues of the nervous system. This experiment shows that the transplanted cells areA. differentiated.B. totipotent.C. discontinuous.D. determined.E. endodermal.arrow_forwardWhich of the following is not true about avian eggs? Choose all possible answers. a. exhibit holoblastic cleavage b. first cleavages are perpendicular to the plane of the blastodisc, and approximately at right angles to one another c. at the time of the fourth cleavage, a furrow running parallel to the circumference of the blastodisc separates central from peripheral forming blastomeres. d. portion of the undersurface of the blastoderm that is farthest from the source of gravity becomes the anterior end of the embryo. e. All of the following are true about eggs of frogs.arrow_forward
