Introduction:

There are three types of classification category. They are monophyletic, polyphyletic, and paraphyletic. Monophyletic is the group which has an ancestor and all the descendants are of the ancestor. Polyphyletic is the group which does not include any common ancestors in the group of organisms. Paraphyletic is the group which includes ancestors but some of the descendants are of the ancestors.

You decide to delete Fgf4 and Fgf8 specifically in the limb bud. Explain why you would not knock out these genes in the entire embryo instead.
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.
