- Design a hypothetical experiment to determine the role of microtubules in gamete nuclear migration during fertilization of a fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster.arrow_forwardLet's say that an experiment had no disruption to kinetochores and you are able to inactivate the CDC 14 phosphatase, which acts to remove phosphate groups from substrates that were previously phosphorylated by active MPF. What effect, if any, would this have on (i) the duration (length) of the mitotic phase, (ii) the timing of cyclin B’s appearance or disappearance, and (iii) the period of time for which MPF is active? Briefly explain your reasoningarrow_forwardMost organisms display a circadian rhythm, a cycling of biological processes that is roughly synchronized with day length. In Drosophila, pupae eclose (emerge as adults after metamorphosis) at dawn. a)Using this knowledge how would screen for Drosophila mutants that have an impaired circadian rhythm? b)In each case, how would you clone the genes you identified by mutation?arrow_forward

- In the late 1980s, this gradient hypothesis was united with a genetic approach to the study of Drosophila embryogenesis. If there were gradients, what were the morphogens whose concentrations changed over space?arrow_forwardA C. elegans (nematode) gene called par-1 helps todetermine the AP axis of the animal early in development. Scientists determined that par-1 is pleiotropic—it also has a later function in forming the vulva of theadult animal. How could researchers circumvent thelethality of par-1− mutants to observe the later function of the par-1 gene? (Hint: C. elegans larvae caneat bacteria expressing RNAi for any gene.)arrow_forwardWhat is the signaling pathway that mediates the organizing activity of the A/P organizer in the Drosophila wing disc? Describe two experiments that suggest this pathway functions to organize pattern and promote growth along the anterior/posterior axis of wing imaginal discs.arrow_forward
