Some given statements about anti freezing are given;
a.some invertebrates to withstand temperatures as low as –18°C without freezing, in presence of glycoproteins
b.Sodium, potassium, or chloride ions involve to increasing  the blood freezing point, so the lack of these ions some species help to lower the blood freezing point
c.Amphibians release large amount of glucose into the blood to prevent freezing of blood in cold
d.Sodium, potassium or urea function as anti freezing in their blood
e.Glycine causes supercooling in plants
Which of the following statements about supercooling/anti freezing is correct?

I. Oxytocin and vasopressin are typical neural hormones , that is, hormones secreted into the circulation by nerve cells.
II. Vasopressin and oxytocin each have a characteristic neurophysin associated with them in the granules in the neurons.
III. The precursor for AVP, prepropressophysin , contains a 19-amino-acid residue leader sequence followed by AVP, neurophysin II, and a glycopeptide. 
IV. Prepro-oxyphysin, the precursor for oxytocin, is a similar but smaller molecule that lacks the glycopeptide.

Which of the following statements is true about formation of the primitive streak ?

A. by the cellular dance mechanism, the cells came down the sides of the epiblast to undergo a medially directed intercalation of cells in the posterior margin where primitive streak forms.

B. Cellular dance is mediated by wnt planar cell polarity pathway in the hypoblast cells, at the posterior edge of the embryo.

C. The Wnt pathway activated by fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) produced by the hypoblast.

D. The Wnt planar cell polarity pathway activated by b-catenin produced by the epiblast.
