Answer 1

1. The Bi-modal strategy of gastrulation in reptiles: Gastrulation is considered as the phase of growth that defines the three basic germ layers of the body. It thus lays the foundations of the body plan of an organism. Research suggests that the gastrulation of reptiles follows the bi-modal strategy. Primary inculcation occurs anteriorly through an inadequate blastoporal opening, while subsequently the cells are placed in the Brachyur-expressing blastoporal layer. This tactic stands among Anamniotes and Mammals in the center, indicating that the blastoporal plate is a counterpart to the primitive avian line.

2. Spiralian gastrulation strategy in Crepidula fornicata: The Spiralia is a collection of approximately 14 phyla with morphologically diverse agglomeration. Most members of these phyla display a highly preserved pattern of embryonic cell divisions called the "spiral cleavage," including nemerteans, molluscs, platyhelminths, and annelids. Gastrulation hypotheses also involve the blastopore's existence, and future, which varies greatly in the phyla's of Spiralia, which is a large branch of bilaterians. The blastopore is said to be the ear, the anus, both, or none in this community. Spiralians switch from the strongly preserved spiral cleavage system to their body-plans unique to their genus during embryonic development, and gastrulation.
