Choose right statement about cleavage pattern and gastrulation movements;
1.At the end of cleavage the animal embryo is essentially a closed sheet of cells, which is often in the form of a sphere enclosing a fluid-filled interior. Gastrulation, strictly the formation of the gut, converts this sheet into a solid three-dimensional embryonic animal body. 
2.During cleavage, cells move into the interior of the embryo, and the regions of endoderm. and mesoderm. which were originally adjacent in the cell sheet, take up their appropriate positions in the embryo.
3. Gastrulation results from a well- defined spatio-temporal pattern of change in cell shape, cell movement, and change in cell adhesiveness, the main forces of which are generated by localized contractions.

#Unit 2. Cellular Organization

Finding: The overall degree of divergence between two homologous exons in related genes corresponds to the differences between the polypeptides.

Reason: Overall degree of divergence between two homologous exons is mostly a result of base substitutions.

A. In homologous introns, the pattern of divergence involves both changes in length.
B. Divergence in introns is due to deletions and insertions and base substitutions. 
C. Introns are slowly evolve while exons much more rapidly 
D. When a gene is compared among different species, there are instances where its exons are homologous but its introns have diverged so much that very little homology is retained.
