The correct order of expression of the genes listed below in the determination of segmentation in Drosophila is "Hox genes > Gap genes > Pair rule genes > Segment polarity genes"

<u>Order: </u>2 > 3 > 4 > 1

<u>Explanation:</u>

The master regulator genes are that guide the creation of specific body segments or structures known as "Homeotic genes". Since these genes are active in segment patterning, the gap genes, pair-rule genes and segment polarity genes are designated as segmentation genes.

  • Many animal homotic genes express transcription factor proteins that include a region called the homeodomain or Hox gene.
  • The maternal impact genes express transcription factors which regulate the gap gene expression. The distance genes subdivide the embryo approximately along the anterior / posterior axis.
  • The gap genes encode transcription factors which control the pair-rule expression of genes. The pair-regulated genes split the embryo into segment pairs.
  • The pair-rule genes encode transcription factors which control the function of the polarity genes in the segment. The polarity genes in the segment determined each segment's anterior or posterior axis.

Alika [10]
The correct answer is: 'Reptiles are ectotherms and cannot raise their body temperature above that of the environment'. Birds sit on their eggs to incubate the eggs as the body temperature of the adult bird warms up the eggs. Birds are <span>endothermic homeotherms, and maintain a constant body temperature. In contrast </span>reptiles <span>are ectothermic poikilotherms, and their body temperature depends on the temperature of the outside environment.</span>

Answer:

b. Nuclear energy is contained in nuclear bonds.

Explanation:

Nuclear energy is contained in nuclear bonds which is released when these bonds are broken. Nuclear energy is more efficient than other forms of energy because it produces more energy as compared to other sources of energy production. There are some special type of contained in which certain materials are used to control the flow of nuclear energy and also to contained it.
