Ans. B. Hox genes.

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).

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).

State 2 features each which viruses have in common with living things
BabaBlast [244]
1. Like living things, viruses have genetic material and 2. viruses can evolve.


- Viruses share many genes with their host cells. Viruses are dependent on living organisms, which lead to some living characteristics - they can reproduce/replicate in living host cells, mutate, appear in different strains, and have unique genetic material. However, viruses are classified as not living things because they can’t carry out the necessary processes that meet all requirements for the classification of a living thing. They do NOT undergo respiration and cannot generate energy needed to survive on its own, but viruses *do* share a few features with living things.

Enter a nuclear equation for the fusion of two h-2 atoms to form he-3 and one neutron. express your answer as a nuclear equation
aliya0001 [1]

The nuclear equation that represents the fusion of two H-2 atoms to form He-3 and one neutron is

\frac{2}{1} h + \frac{2}{1} h >  >  >  >  \frac{3}{2} he   +  \frac{1}{0} n

In a nuclear reaction the nuclides are represented with the chemical symbol preceded by a superscript that represents the mass number (number of protons plus neutrons) and a subscript that represents the atomic number (number of protons).

<h3>What is a Nuclear reaction ?</h3>

A nuclear reaction is a process in nuclear physics and nuclear chemistry where two nuclei or a nucleus and an outside subatomic particle meet to create one or more new nuclides. Consequently, at least one nuclide must change throughout a nuclear reaction.
