Question
Chapter 40.4, Problem 1CC
Summary Introduction
To determine: The way by which the embryo of eudicot differ if it's TOPLESS gene were non-functional.
Introduction: After the formation of zygote, differentiation of cells takes place which results in the formation of embryo. The process of formation of the embryo is known as “embryogenesis.” The nutrition in the development of embryo is provided by the endosperm.

What would happen if one cell was removed or damaged at the 2-cell stage of sea urchin embryo development? What about if one cell was removed at the 4-cell stage? At the 8-cell stage? How about if two cells were separated after the first cleavage and allowed to develop on their own?
what is the process which involves in the self-destruction of cells in the developing embryo as shown in the disappearance of the embryo’s tail?

- Given that the first division of the zygote divides the embryo into the future right and left halves of the butterfly, complete a hypothesis that explains how nondisjunction during the first mitosis might have produced this unusual-looking butterfly. Match the terms In the left column to the approprlate blanks In the sentences on the right. Not all terms will be used. Reset Help female The zygote has the genotype. If nondisjunction occurs during the first mitosis the left cell will have the genotype and develops to the half.
