<u>Answer</u>: Appear to function in similar ways across diverse groups of organisms.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • The <em>hox</em> genes are a subset of homeotic genes.
  • The function of the hox genes is to control the development of the body plan of an individual during the embryonic stage.
  • Thus, the basic body form of an organism is laid down with the help of these genes.
  • <em>These genes are present in many different species from fruit fly to mice to humans</em>.
  • The reason that they are present in different organisms is that there was a common ancestor that possessed the hox gene cluster and then the genes were passed on to different vertebrates. However, the slight changes that have occurred in these genes are due to duplication events.

Are SA citizens vaccinated against yellow fever? give two reason for your answer.
Brut [27]
South African people are vaccinated with Yellow fever. First, SA is strict in the implementation proof of vaccination in travelers coming in the country. The vaccination card must show vaccination at least ten days prior to travel. This is to prevent reintroduction of the disease to SA people. Second, In the list of Center for Disease Control, South Africa is not included in the countries with an endemic Yellow fever which means that the disease is wiped out if not controlled through vaccination.
