Following statements are regarding to the specification of anterior-posterior axis in drosophila.

A. The oocyte moves into the posterior region of the egg chamber, while nurse cells fill the anterior portion. The oocyte nucleus moves toward the terminal follicle cells and synthesizes Gurken protein.

B. When Gurken binds to Torpedo, the terminal follicle cells differentiate into posterior follicle cells and synthesize a molecule that activates protein kinase A in the egg.

C. Bicoid mRNA binds to dynein, a “plus-directed” motor protein associated with the nongrowing end of microtubules; dynein moves the bicoid mRNA to the anterior end of the egg.

D. Oskar mRNA becomes complexed to kinesin I, a “minus-directed” motor protein that moves it toward the growing end of the microtubules at the posterior region, where Oskar protein can bind nanos mRNA.
