During Vulval induction in C. elegans, the anchor cell secretes, a paracrine factor which receives by VPCs and become vulva. If the anchor cell is destroyed, the VPCs will not form a vulva. This is the example of:

Doris Taylor’s research group used detergents to remove all the cells from a cadaveric rat heart, which leaves behind the natural extracellular matrix. An extracellular matrix scaffold can promote the differentiation and rebuilding of a beating heart. The researchers then infused this ECM scaffold with cardiomyocytes. Now these cells differentiated and organized into a functionally contracting “recellularized” heart. Which of the following statement is correct?
