Use what you know about the bcl-2 family of genes (which includes the ced-9 gene in c. elegans) to predict the outcomes of the situations described below. select three of the below. a. in c. elegans, overexpression of ced-9 during embryonic development leads to the survival of cells that would normally undergo apoptosis. b. in human cells, underexpression of bcl-2 is associated with uncontrolled cell growth that leads to a type of cancer called follicular lymphoma. c. in humans with follicular lymphoma, a potential therapeutic would be to increase the expression of bcl-2 in the cancerous cells. d. in humans, cells that express high levels of bcl-2 are more susceptible to apoptosis. e. in humans, cells that express high levels of bcl-2 are less likely to undergo apoptosis. f. in human cell lines, scientists can manipulate the cells to force the expression of bcl-2 to prevent apoptosis.

Some species of wasps are social. the queen starts a colony from scratch each spring. she builds a small nest, and lays and raises a group of female workers. the workers enlarge the nest while the queen continues to lay eggs. unfertilized eggs become males that mate with newly hatched females. all of the wasps except the newly fertilized females die by the summer. which best describes this behavior? a)it is beneficial only to the males that do not fertilize eggs. b)it is beneficial only to the female workers that are not fertilized. c)it is beneficial to each one of the individual colony members. d)it is beneficial to the whole species, but not to all of the individual members.
