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 level most commonly meant by the term biodiversity is the species level.
Answer:
Estrogen and progesterone are both involved in preparing the endometrium for embryo implantation. Estrogen helps to ensure conception by increasing the amount of secretory glands in the uterus. Estrogen also increases blood supply to the endometrium.
Progesterone is crucial for embryo implantation and maintenance of pregnancy. Progesterone also enlarges secretory glands that produce carbohydrates, proteins and mucin that are required for embryo nourishment before implantation. Progesterone stabilizes endometrial muscles to prevent them from contracting during pregnancy.
Explanation:
- Estrogen and progesterone are steroid hormones of the reproductive system. Estrogen helps in conception whereas progesterone maintains pregnancy.
- Estrogen is secreted during the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle that promotes the growth and maturation of follicles in the ovary.
- Estrogen also induces oestrous behavior in females.
- Secreted by the corpus luteum, progesterone is also a steroid hormone, responsible for implantation of the embryo in the uterus.
loblolly pine trees
Explanation:
Population density refers to the amount of organisms living in a particular area:
Population density = 
Area of the forest = 10acres
Population densities of:
White-tailed deer = 
= 0.8white tailed deer/acres
Coyotes = 
= 0.7coyotes/acres
Armadillos = 
= 4.5armadillos/acres
loblolly pine = 
= 23.1loblolly pine trees/acre
The population with the highest density is that of the loblolly pine trees with 23.1 of the trees in an acre.
