Gwar [14]

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.

eimsori [14]
They have chloroplasts. They do not possess mobility because they cannot just stand up and walk to the nearest river. Unicellular organisms are very small, and most organisms are multi-cellular, including plants. Plants, animals, and fungi are eukaryotic, but only bacteria is prokaryotic. So therefore, choice 3 is correct.
