Hox genes (homeobox genes) can be defined as a group of related genes, which specify regions of an body plan of an organism's embryo along its head-tail axis. Given figure represents body plan in fruit fly, in which has eight Hox genes, clustered into two complexes.

These genes include labial (for head involution),  proboscipedia (for labial abd maxillary pulps), deformed (maxillary and mandibular segments), sex combs reduced (for cephalic and thoracic development), antennapedia (pair of legs and wings), ultrabithorax (pair of legs halteres), abdominal-A and abdominal-B (for abdomen).

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

All four types of polysaccharides are homopolymers ie they are made up of repeating units of only one type of monomers.

Starch, glycogen and cellulose are made up of repeating monomeric units of glucose with the number of glucose units and the different linkage types different these molecules. E.g the linkage between glucose units in glycogen is alpha 1-4 linkages and in cellulose, we have glucose in beta 1-4 linkages.

In chitin, a derivative of glucose is present in repeating units, here, we have N-acetyl-D-glucosamine in beta 1-4 linkages.
