Developmental Genetics 1) What is the process of development? 2) How does the gene "dorsal" cause the dorsal-ventral axes to form? 3) What protein does the gene "dorsal" encode? 4) What does it mean that "dorsal" is of maternal origin?

Explanation / Answer

1). Developmental genetics deals with the study of effect of gene expression on the development of an organism during its life time. The process if development include three phases namely,

a). Cell division: Cells divide to produce more cells

b). Cell differentiation: Each cell develops specific pattern of organelle distribution, which determines their function.

c). Morphogenesis: Groups of similar cells move to a single site and form an organ and all organs arrange in a structural way to produce an organism.
