d. microtubules powered by myosins and microfilaments powered by dyneins move the eye components around in the head region.
e. cadherins function in the presence of calcium to allow the lens placode and optic cup to break apart.

Which of the following is an illustration of permissive interaction?
The epidermis signals the underlying dermis to create condensations and the dermal condensations then signal the
epidermis to form specific cutaneous structures.
