Following statements regarding to feedback loops during limb development.

A. When the limb bud is relatively small, an initial positive feedback loop is established between Fgf10 produced in the mesoderm and Fgf8 produced in the ectoderm, promoting limb outgrowth.

B. As the limb bud grows, the ZPA is established, and another regulatory loop is created by inhibiting the BMP in mesoderm and maintain FGF expression.

C. In anterior region of the limb bud, Fgf8 positively regulates Etv4/5, which in turn repress Shh in this region, further reinforcing the posterior-to-anterior gradient of Shh from the ZPA.

D. In posterior region of the limb bud, Fgf8 positively regulates Etv4/5, which in turn repress Shh in this region, further reinforcing the posterior-to-anterior gradient of Shh from the ZPA.

In balancing selection, two or more alleles are kept in balance, and therefore are maintained in a population over the course of many generations. Which of the following example can support balancing natural selection?

A- Sickle cell allele kept in balance because heterozygotes have greater chance of survival if infected by the malarial parasite, compared with normal homozygotes

B. One morph has selective advantage over another morph

C. One homozygote has greater chance of survival than other genotype results in purity of population

D. many species of invertebrates exist as different colored forms, identical in all respects except color. Visually searching predators often develop a search image for one color form, usually the commoner

According to the ABC model of flower development in Arabidopsis, three classes of organ identity genes— designated A, B, and C— are required to specify the identity of floral organs in each whorl of a flower. If wild type Arabidopsis were transformed with a chimeric gene composed of a C class promoter fused to a B class coding sequence, which of the following arrangements   (outer to inner) would be predicted?
