Homeotic genes contain a homeobox sequence that is highly conserved among very diverse species. The homeobox is the code for that domain of a protein that binds to DNA in a regulatory developmental process. Which of the following would you then expect?

#Unit 11. Evolution and Behavior
  1. That homeotic genes are selectively expressed over developmental time.

  2. That a homeobox containing gene has to be a developmental regulator.

  3. That homeoboxes cannot be expressed in non-homeotic genes.

  4. That all organisms must have homeotic genes.

For innate and adaptive immunity to work together, these two systems must be able to communicate with one another. This communication is achieved by both cell-cell contact and by soluble messengers. Most of these soluble proteins are growth factor–like molecules known by the general name cytokines. Which of these molecule can work as communicator between innate and adaptive immunity?

Stem cells are defined by two capacities:
(1) the ability to regenerate or “self-renew” and
(2) the ability to differentiate into all diverse cell types. Embryonic stem cells have the capacity to generate every specialized cell type in an organism, in other words,

undifferentiated hematopoietic stem cells would not express surface markers specific for mature cells from the multiple blood lineages (“Lin” markers). They used several approaches to eliminate cells in the bone marrow that did express these markers (Lin+ cells) and then examined the remaining (Lin+) population for its potential to continually give rise to all blood cells over the long term. Lin- cells were, indeed, enriched for this potential. what marker is   express If cells inter in lymphoid lineages?

  _______are motile phagocytic cells they play their most important role in the defense against multicellular parasitic organisms, including worms. They can be found clustering around invading worms, whose membranes are damaged by the activity of proteins released from its granules. it may also secrete cytokines that regulate B and T lymphocytes, thereby influencing the adaptive immune response.
