Answer: The correct answer is -

A. detect color and form images.

Explanation:

Compound eyes are considered as the organ of vision, present in arthropods like crustaceans and insects. They are composed of thousands of small, independent units of photoreception called ommatidia (each having a cornea, lens, and photoreceptor cells) which are used to form the complete image together and distinguish brightness as well as color of the image.

The number and the size of ommatidia provides a larger field of vision to the insect.

Thus, option A is the right answer.

Answer:

Sonic Hedgehog.

Explanation:

Sonic hedgehog is a secreted protein that in humans is encoded by the SHH gene. It is the best studied ligand of the hedgehog signaling pathway, others being desert hedgehog (DHH) and Indian hedgehog (IHH). It plays a key role in the development of animals, from insects to mammals. In vertebrates, it is involved in organogenesis, including the growth of digits on limbs and the organization of the brain.

Sonic hedgehog has also been shown to act as an axonal guidance cue. It has been demonstrated that SHH attracts commissural axons at the ventral midline of the developing spinal cord. Specifically, SHH attracts retinal ganglion cell (RGC) axons at low concentrations and repels them at higher concentrations
