If you treated embryos with a Notch inhibitor how would this affect the specification of venous and arterial endothelial cells?

Biology

Alisiya [41]3 years ago

Answer:

d. all endothelial cells would be venous

Explanation:

The Notch signaling pathway is a cell signaling system which consist basically of 4 NOTCH genes ( NOTCH1, NOTCH2, NOTCH3, and NOTCH4) each of them having the information to build a particular cell membrane receptor protein.

It has been demonstrated in zebrafish embryos that Notch signaling are highly determinant factors during vascular development, and a key function of these genes was specifically to regulate the differentiation of arterial fate in endothelial cells.

Notch signaling-deficient embryos showed a loss of expression of arterial markers such as ephrinB2 from arterial vessels with an accompanying expansion of venous markers into normally arterial domains. In contrast, embryos in which Notch signaling had been ectopically activated, meaning an activation out of "proper" place (where not expected, e.g. venous endothelial), exhibited the contrary phenotype, this is a suppression of vein-specific markers with ectopic expression of arterial markers in venous vessels.

To summarize, when Notch is supressed (in this case inhibited with a specific Notch inhibitor) arterial fate of endothelium is not followed, and venous fate is stablished. Thus, endothelial cells (those expected to form venous tissues but also arterial ones) would specified as venous.

Arrange these groups in order from most inclusive (most general) to least inclusive (most specific).
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

These groups are arranged in order from most inclusive (most general) to least inclusive (most specific) is gnathostomes, osteichthyans, lobe-fins, tetrapods, amphibians.

<h3>What is gnathostomes?</h3>

The jawed vertebrates are called gnathostomata. The phrase comes from the Greek words "jaw" and "mouth." Approximately 60,000 species make up the diversity of the gnathostome, which represents 99% of all vertebrates still alive today.

<h3>What is osteichthyans?</h3>

A broad taxonomic group of fish called osteichthyes, also known as the "bony fish," has skeletons that are predominantly made of bone tissue.

<h3>What is lobe-fins?</h3>

The taxon Sarcopterygii, also known as Crossopterygii, is made up of bony fishes noted for having lobe-finned fishes as its members.

<h3>What is tetrapods?</h3>

Four-legged vertebrates that make up the superclass Tetrapoda are known as tetrapods, which derives from the Ancient Greek (tetra-) "four" and "foot." It consists of synapsids, dinosaurs, and extinct as well as living amphibians, reptiles, and dinosaur-related birds (including mammals).

3. Predict: Based on your hypothesis, predict how changing the rabbit population will affect the other organisms at first. Write
Damm [24]

Answer: as the predator’s population goes up, the preys will go down, and as the prey’s goes up, the predators will go up. They are basically the opposite of each other.

Explanation: I can’t really tell what your question is. However if there are more prey to eat, then the number of predators will grow because they have more food. However, once there’s too many predators, the number of prey will drop which lowers the amount of food.
