Some statements with respect to the regeneration in hydra.

A. The major head inducer of the hypostome organizer is a set of Wnt proteins acting through the canonical B-catenin pathway.

B. The major head inducer of the hypostome organizer is a set of Wnt proteins acting through the noncanonical B-catenin pathway.

C. These Wnt proteins are seen in the apical end of the early bud, defining the hypostome region as the bud elongates

D. If the Wnt signaling inhibitor GSK3 is itself inhibited throughout the body axis, ectopic tentacles form at all levels, and each piece of the trunk has the ability to stimulate the outgrowth of new buds.

E. transgenic hydra made to globally misexpress the downstream Wnt effector ectopic tentacles form at all levels, and each piece of the trunk has the ability to stimulate the outgrowth of new buds.

Ten people are sitting in a row. Their objective is to whisper a secret from one person to the next all the way down the row. The first person whispers the secret to the second person who passes the secret to the third person and so on. After whispering to the third person, the second person in the row notices the ninth person has fallen asleep in their chair, so she gets up, goes down the row and shakes person nine awake. This example is similar to ________.
