Question
Chapter 42, Problem 3SQ
Summary Introduction
Introduction: The process where the zygote undergoes several changes to form a youngling is called as development. During the development, the regulated gene expression takes place. As a result, morphogens are produced, which regulate how the organism should develop into a youngling.
