The ability of the sea urchin embryo to regulate its development illustrates the fact that there are maternally-determined differences along the animal-vegetal axis that are necessary for normal development. Which of the following statements about regulation in sea urchin embryos is consistent with that fact?

#Unit 5. Developmental Biology
  1. Up until the hatching of the embryo as a pluteus larva, any blastomere can be separated from the others and will regulate to go on and develop into a fully formed and full-sized larva.
  2. Up until the hatching of the embryo as a pluteus larva, any blastomere can be separated from the others and will regulate to go on and develop into a fully formed, yet smaller, larva.
  3. Blastomeres from the animal or vegetal poles of the embryo can be isolated and will go on to form an embryo, as long as either an animal or vegetal pole is included.
  4. Blastomeres at the 4-cell stage each still possesses a portion of the original animal-vegetal axis, and if isolated will go on to form a fully formed, yet smaller, larva.

In the pearl-millet plant, color is determined by three alleles at a single locus: Rp1 (red), Rp2 (purple), and rp (green). Red is dominant over purple and green, and purple is dominant over green (Rp1 > Rp2 > rp). What will be expected phenotypes and ratios of offspring produced by the Rp1/rp × Rp2/rp crosses?
