What generalization can be applied to the pole plasm of Drosophila, the P-granules of C. elegans, the yolk-free vegetal cytoplasm of Xenopus, and the localized mRNA for vasa in zebrafish?

#Unit 5. Developmental Biology
  1. All mark the posterior end of the antero-posterior axis.

  2. All are present at fertilization in the vegetal pole of the egg.

  3. All are determinants that specify the dorso-ventral axis of the fertilized egg.

  4. All mark the special region of cytoplasm, the germplasm, that is involved in specification of germ cells.

#Unit 8. Inheritance Biology

Assume that three loci, each with two alleles (A and a, B and b, C and c), determine the differences in height between two homozygous strains of a plant. These genes are additive and equal in their effects on plant height. One strain (aabbcc) is 10 cm in height. The other strain (AABBCC) is 22 cm in height. The two strains are crossed, and the resulting F1 are interbred to produce 1000 F2 progeny. what is number of F2 progeny having intermediate height?
