What probably explains why coastal and inland garter snakes react differently to banana slug prey?

#Unit 10. Ecological Principles
  1. Ancestors of coastal snakes that could eat the abundant banana slugs had increased fitness. No such selection occurred inland, where banana slugs were absent.
  2. Banana slugs are difficult to see, and inland snakes, which have poor vision compared with coastal snakes, are less able to see them.
  3. Garter snakes learn about prey from other garter snakes. Inland garter snakes have fewer types of prey because they are less social.
  4. Inland slugs are distasteful, so inland snakes learn to avoid them. Coastal banana Slugs are not distasteful.

Many of the cell and tissue movements in Xenopus gastrulation happen simultaneously. Still identify the different types of behaviors that occur during Xenopus gastrulation:

A. Epiboly: The thinning and spreading of the animal cap cells over the vegetal hemisphere, powered by proliferation and radial intercalation.

B. Vegetal rotation: Vegetal cells asymmetrically press up against the inner blastocoel roof on the dorsal side.

C. Bottle cell formation and invagination: The leading edge of invaginating cells crawls up onto the blastocoel roof.

D. Involution and cell migration: Localized apical constriction at the dorsal blastopore lip creates anisotropic forces that foster invagination.

E. Convergence and extension: The targeted medial-to-lateral intercalation of cells on the midline (convergence) drives anterior-posterior axis elongation (extension).
