Chapter 34.2, Problem 1CYP
Summary Introduction

To trace:

The path of food from the mouth to the large intestine.

Introduction:

Digestion is the process of degrading (breaking down) the food particles into smaller parts by the action of teeth, enzymes, hydrochloric acid, and peptidases. The food is broken down before it is absorbed and assimilated into the small intestine. The food enters the blood vessels before the nutrients reach to the various different organs, where the various metabolic reactions occur. The energy is liberated out (or produced) for functioning of the human body.

"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?
