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.

Which statement below about mating behavior is correct?

A) Some aspects of courtship behavior may have evolved from agonistic interactions.

B) The degree to which evolution affects mating relationships depends on the degree of prenatal and postnatal input the parents are required to make.

C) The mating relationship in most mammals is monogamous, to ensure the reproductive success of the pair.
