Answer:

Enzymes are specific since they always act on a certain substrate. The substrates that are obviously specific bind to the active site of the enzyme where they are chemically modified to become one or more products. The reaction is generally reversible.

Tortoises with long necks were found to be abundant in regions that had vegetation on a higher level. A few years later, drought

chubhunter [2.5K]

I believe this is survival of the fittest. so because of the drought there was no more food supply for the long necked tortoises thus causing them to die off and not be able to reproduce and pass of their gene for long neck. where as for the short neck tortoises there was enough food for them to survive and thus being able to reproduce and pass on their gene for short necks.

Which of these regions is most likely to develop into the Drosophilia's head? The Drosophila embryo is divided into 5 parts mark

vazorg [7]

Answer:

Part-A will lead toward the head development of Drosophila.

Explanation:

A morphogen is a substance that governs the pattern of tissue development in the process of morphogenesis or pattern formation, Pattern formation is one of the core processes in the development of Drosophila's body. Bicoid was the first protein demonstrated to act as a morphogen. Bicoid is a gene whose protein concentration gradient patterns the anterior-posterior (A-P) axis during Drosophila embryogenesis. Although Bicoid is important for the development of Drosophila's head. Bicoid concentration is high in the anterior side or in part-A of the Drosophila that will become the head. Bicoid concentration is low at the posterior side or part-E of the Drosophila that will become the tail.
