HOXC8 gene encodes a protein that has a role in the development of the cartilage. This gene is a member of the HOX group gene that enables the differentiation of the body segments. These genes encode for transcription factors that activate the expression of other specific genes guiding the differentiation of body segments into specific structures.
The answer is D. You really have to think about this one :)) I hope you get it right
Answer:
Interactions between biotic and abiotic components regulate carbon dioxide and water levels.
Explanation:
Abiotic factors include temperature, water, humidity, etc; while biotic factors include all the forms of life. These factors interact in the ecosystem to maintain its homeostasis. For example, during the photosynthesis, plants use the energy of the sun water and carbon dioxide to produce food (carbohydrates) and this process converts carbon dioxide (CO2) to oxygen, which is critical for maintaining the homeostasis of the ecosystem.
