Answer: B. False

Explanation:

“Hox” genes are a highly conserved group of genes, all of whose products are transcription factors bearing a specific domain (called a ”homeodomain”). The transcriptional activity of a large amount of genes relevant to embryonic development is controlled by regulatory sites which are able to bind to this domain. Changes in the transcriptional activity of even a single Hox gene may thus have dramatic downstream effects on the phenotype, as this will result in several further genes having their transcription either enhanced or suppressed.

Answer:

Percent error = 8.3%

Explanation:

Given data:

Accepted value of specific gravity = 7.2

Measured value of specific gravity =  7.8

Percent error = ?

Solution:

Percent error = measured value - accepted value / accepted value × 100

Now we will put the values in formula.

Percent error = 7.8 - 7.2/7.2 × 100

Percent error = 0.6/7.2 × 100

Percent error = 0.083 × 100

Percent error = 8.3%
