Answer:

Gene regulation refers to the regulation of expression of a particular gene in a cell that is, it increases or decreases the expression of a particular set of genes in a particular cell.  

In multicellular organisms, gene regulation plays a crucial role in cell differentiation and maturation.  

It enables the formation of different types of cells or tissues from a single type of stem cells that is, it enables the formation of a multicellular organism from a single cell zygote.

For example, muscle cells, nerve cell, skin cell et cetera all arise from a single-celled zygote. It is possible due to highly regulated gene expression.

All cells contain the same genetic information (DNA) but different sets of genes are expressed in different specialized cells.

Which of the following is not an anthropoid?<br><br> Lemurs<br> Monkeys<br> Apes<br> Humans
faust18 [17]

The correct answer is A. Lemurs

Explanation:

In biology, a primate is a taxonomic order of mammals that originated around 85 million years ago as animals that lived in trees and derived into multiple species including lemurs, humans, apes, monkeys, gorillas, etc. Additionally, primates as a taxonomic order divide into two suborders prosimians and anthropoids. The first group of primates is mostly nocturnal, small and also they have a smaller brain, this includes primates such as lemurs and tarsiers. On the other hand, anthropoids have a bigger brain and size and also have more advanced cognitive abilities this includes gorillas, monkeys, apes, and even humans. Considering this, the on that is not an anthropoid but prosimians are the Lemurs.
