Hox genes, which are members of the homeotic transcription factor family, establish the segment identity of tissues within the embryo and are essential regulators of the body plan along the cranio-caudal axis (also known as the anterior-posterior axis). This means during embryogenesis, these genes expression follows a precise spatial and temporal colinearity pattern from the 3' to the 5' end of each cluster.

This indicates that Hox genes expressed anteriorly in the developing embryo are typically found at the 5′ end of the same genomic area, a phenomenon known as spatial colinearity. In comparison, those expressed posteriorly are typically found at the 3′ end of the Hox cluster.

What is the difference between Primary and Secondary Succession?
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Some differences between primary and secondary succession are:

-Secondary succession happens on a previously existing community that has been cleared.

Another difference would be:

-Pioneer species for secondary succession are adapted differently- they grow quickly, can disperse quickly and have a short life span

And finally:

-Primary succession develops a new community from scratch

Not sure if you were looking for this, sorry if this is not correct.

Simora [160]

Answer:

The question lacks options, the options are:

A) 1 out of 16

B) 3 out of 16

C) 6 out of 16

D) 9 out of 16

The answer is 1 out of 16

Explanation:

This is a DIHYBRID cross because it involves two different genes coding for distinct traits. One of the traits will be dominant while the other recessive. Hence, parents that are purebred for opposite forms of the trait means that one parent is homozygous dominant while the other is homozygous recessive. When these two parents cross, they produce F1 offsprings that all possess the dominant trait but heterozygous/hybrids.

When these hybrids are self-crossed, they produce four different combinations of gametes which when crossed using a punnet square will result in F2 offsprings with a 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio according to Mendel's observation.

9 represents offsprings that are dominant for both traits

The two 3's represents offsprings that are recessive for one trait and dominant for the other respectively.

1 represents offsprings that are homozygous recessive for both traits.

Hence, 1 out of 16 offsprings will be homozygous recessive for both traits.
