Many of the cell and tissue movements in Xenopus gastrulation happen simultaneously. Still identify the different types of behaviors that occur during Xenopus gastrulation:

A. Epiboly: The thinning and spreading of the animal cap cells over the vegetal hemisphere, powered by proliferation and radial intercalation.

B. Vegetal rotation: Vegetal cells asymmetrically press up against the inner blastocoel roof on the dorsal side.

C. Bottle cell formation and invagination: The leading edge of invaginating cells crawls up onto the blastocoel roof.

D. Involution and cell migration: Localized apical constriction at the dorsal blastopore lip creates anisotropic forces that foster invagination.

E. Convergence and extension: The targeted medial-to-lateral intercalation of cells on the midline (convergence) drives anterior-posterior axis elongation (extension).

In the mid-1900s, the Soviet geneticist Lysenko believed that his winter wheat plants, exposed to ever-colder temperatures, would eventually give rise to ever more cold-tolerant winter wheat. Lysenkoʹs attempts in this regard were most in agreement with the ideas of

As a young biologist, Charles Darwin had expected the living plants of temperate South America would resemble those of temperate Europe, but he was surprised to find that they more closely resembled the plants of tropical South America. The biological explanation for this observation is most properly associated with the field of
