Two different sets of genes control embryonic development in drosophila: maternal-effect genes and zygotic genes. products of the maternal-effect genes (mrna and/or proteins) are distributed in a gradient throughout the egg and regulate the expression of the first three groups of zygotic genes (gap, pair-rule, and segment polarity genes).

Sammi is studying the interaction of the digestive and circulatory systems in the human body. she has listed various processes that occur in each of the systems. put the processes in order to describe the interaction between these two systems. tiles nutrients diffuse through the villi of the small intestine.digestive processes break nutrients down in the mouth, stomach, and small intestine.blood is pumped through the circulatory system to deliver nutrients to other organs.nutrients are ingested at the mouth.nutrients enter the capillaries of the circulatory system. sequence

Asolution of an enzyme and a substrate was placed in a water bath and the temperature of the reaction was raised gradually. the graph shown was plotted at the end of the experiment. what can be concluded from the graph? a) temperature has no effect on the activity of the enzyme. b) the effect of temperature on the enzyme is unpredictable. c) the enzyme shows increased activity up to a certain temperature. d) the activity of the enzyme is inversely proportional to the temperature.

Guinea pig coat color is determined by a single gene. the allele for black coat color is dominant to brown. in a cross between twoblack-haired guinea pigs, 20 offspring are born. if both parents were heterozygous, probability would predict that approximately howmany of the 20 offspring would have brown hair?
