Summary Introduction

To describe:

One example of type IV delayed hypersensitivity reaction.

Introduction:

Type IV is T-cell-mediated hypersensitivity and is also known as delayed reaction hypersensitivity. This type of hypersensitivity may affect any individual. It results from continuous exposure of the membrane to chemical substances which results in synthesis and accumulation of large number of T lymphocytes in skin. These lymphocytes eventually get activated. The action of macrophages along with T lymphocytes causes release of various factors which cause inflammation and eruption of skin. This takes around two to four days to begin thus it is called delayed hypersensitivity.

You implant an FGF10-coated bead into the anterior flank of a chicken embryo, directly below the level of the wing bud. What is the phenotype of the resulting ectopic limb?  Briefly describe the expected expression domains of 1) Shh, 2) Tbx4, and 3) Tbx5 in the resulting ectopic limb bud.
Design a grafting experiment to determine if limb mesoderm determines forelimb / hindlimb identity. Include the experiment, a control, and an interpretation in your answer.
The Snapdragon is a popular garden flower that comes in a variety of colours, including red, yellow, and orange. The genotypes and associated phenotypes for some of these flowers are as follows: aabb: yellow AABB, AABb, AaBb, and AaBB: red AAbb and Aabb: orange aaBB: yellow aaBb: ? Based on this information, what would the phenotype of a Snapdragon with the genotype aaBb be and why?   Question 21 options:   orange because A is epistatic to B   yellow because A is epistatic to B   red because B is epistatic to A   orange because B is epistatic to A   red because A is epistatic to B   yellow because B is epistatic to A
