Introduction:
Animal body plans with bilateral symmetry include the gut, which is either a sac within the body or a tube flowing through the body, where food is digested. A saclike gut has one opening i.e. a mouth for food intake and waste disposal. A tube-like gut has a mouth and anus opening at both sides, and is a complete digestive organ.

Answer to Problem 18A
Correct answer :
The correct answer is option (C) feeding
Explanation of Solution
Explanation/justification for the correct answer :
Option (C) feeding. In the evolution, the coelom was a central adaptation in developing larger, more specialized body structures. Specialized organs and body systems that created from mesoderm form in the coelom. The organ systems that may evolve are circulatory system, muscular system and become more active by increasing in size. Therefore, feeding cannot be evolved as it neither an organ nor a body system, it is just a process. So, the correct answer is option (C).
Explanation for incorrect answer :
Option (A) circulation. In the evolution, the coelom was a central adaptation in developing larger, more specialized body structures. Specialized organs and body systems that created from mesoderm form in the coelom. Circulatory system is a body system that can evolve. So, this is an incorrect option.
Option (B) movement. In the evolution, the coelom was a central adaptation in developing larger, more specialized body structures. Specialized organs and body systems that created from mesoderm form in the coelom. Muscular system is a body system that can evolve due to which animals can become more active i.e., in movement. So, this is an incorrect answer.
Option (D) muscular system. In the evolution, the coelom was a central adaptation in developing larger, more specialized body structures. Specialized organs and body systems that created from mesoderm form in the coelom. Muscular system is a body system that can evolve. So, this is an incorrect answer.
The evolution of an internal body cavity had adaptive advantage in all except in feeding. Hence, the correct answer is Option (C) feeding

- Question #4: Assume you are able to use CRISPR to create an allele that will convert a cross-pollinated, sexually reproducing crop plant into an obligate apomict. Your edited obligate apomict plants retains all the CRISPR "machinery" necessary to convert the "sexually reproducing" allele to the "obligate apomict" allele. You plant 100 hectares of your edited obligate apomicts in order to increase seed for sale the following year. Neighboring farms and seed producers are growing many different un-edited sexually reproducing varieties of the crop. If your neighbors plant seed harvested from their crops that was pollinated by your crop, should they expect these seeds to generate apomictic or non-apomictic plants?

- "One of the symmetry breaking events in mouse gastrulation requires the amplification of Nodal on the side of the embryo opposite to the Anterior Visceral Endoderm (AVE). Describe one way by which Nodal gets amplified in this region." My understanding of this is that there are a few ways nodal is amplified though I'm not sure if this is specifically occurs on the opposite side of the AVE. 1. pronodal cleaved by protease -> active nodal 2. Nodal -> BMP4 -> Wnt-> nodal 3. Nodal-> Nodal, Fox1 binding site 4. BMP4 on outside-> nodal Are all of these occuring opposite to AVE?arrow_forwardIf four babies are born on a given day What is the chance all four will be girls?
