(a)
Interpretation:
Noble gas having an electron configuration identical to that of the following ion -
Concept Introduction:
Atoms tend to gain or lose electrons until they obtain an electron configuration that is the same as that of a noble gas.
The neutral atom has equal number of protons and electrons. Gaining or loosing of a electrons of an atoms form ions.
Atoms form their ions to attain noble gas configuration.
- Group IA, IIA and IIIA are metal atoms containing one, two or three valence electrons. These metal atoms lose their valence electrons to get noble gas configuration.
- Group VA, VIA VIIA are non-metal atoms containing five, six or seven valence electrons. These non-metal atoms acquire electrons to get noble gas configuration.
- Group IVA group elements have four valence electrons. These elements either gain or lose their electrons to get noble gas configuration.

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_forward

What is the phenotype, and why is the phenotype so similar? Is the phenotype going to be that there is a disruption of the formation of the neural tube for both of these because bottle cell formation is necessary for the neural plate to fold in forming the neural tube and Shroom3 is further needed to close the neural plate? So since both Plekhg5 and Shroom3 are used in forming the neural tube, injecting the mRNA will just lead to neural tube deformity?arrow_forward
