please explain the fertilization process of the zebra fish, be sure to include the effect that the actual fertilization event has on subsequent cleavage and gastrulation in the model.
The fertilization process of the zebra fish:
Fertilization:
The gametes of male zebra fish are sperm cells with no acrosome whereas female gametes are oocytes together fertilize by entering into the micropyle to from a diploid embryo followed by formation of cytoplasmic cap. This is followed by cleavage of embryonic cells in the from of "meroblastic" to generate poles with yolk.
Mid-Blastula Transition ---> formation of yolk syncytial layer ---> gastrulation as describe below
Gastrulation always initiates with invagination of the embryonic bottle cells followed by involution of mesoderm and finally epiboly of ectoderm.
Gastrulation begins at the vegetal pole in the tunicates followed as this vegetal pole will become future dorsal side component composed of nutrients. Initially, zygotic cells will produce invagination as to produce “endoderm” that produces blastopore. This step is followed by involution of mesoderm that migrates further into the blastopore. Third step is followed by formation of epiboly of ectoderm that covers the embryo finally formation of anterior-posterior axis with neural tube formation. This is going to enable cell migration and cell movement. In the tunicates, notochord supports as a flexible rod of gelatinous for adult form. The similar structural formation during evolutionary development in lancelets has been observed during their embryonic development.
The genes responsible for the generation of “embryonic organizer” are gene “Goosecoid” and the ventral genes Vent1 and Vent2 in case of vertebrate fish models (Zebra fish) for gastrulation. In case of vertebrate mouse models Goosecoid –organizer specific genes are essential for mesodermal patterning at the time of gastrulation.

Pick one early developmental process (fertilization, cleavage, gastrulation or any axis specification) and COMPARE and CONTRAST this process between one INVERTEBRATE model organism with one VERTEBRATE model organism.
Describe the progression and stages of embryo development from fertilization to an early embryo that has a fully formed neural tube. Include the following terms (at least) in your description: gastrulation, organogenesis (neurulation), zygote, cleavage, blastula, morula. Explain the functional differences of extraembryonic membranes in terrestrial vertebrates.
Please explain the Generalized Model for creating a health promotion program. Be sure to include a brief description of each of the 5 steps and the importance of pre-planning. What is determined during that phase?
Please help with the 2 questions. For 6, I think we can use GFP, but I'm not sure if it's right and I don't know how to describe the process. 5. If you are given a monoclonal antibody and a polyclonal antibody against a given protein, which do you think is more likely to have blocking activity (to inhibit the function of the given protein)? 6. The Zebra fish is a model organism used to study vertebrate development. One feature...
Please explain the determining factors of the interest rate and make sure to include hypothetical examples for better clarity. Describe the meaning of the yield curve. Verify how the shape of the yield curve provides predictions on the economy in future years. Please visit the US Governments’ Treasury site, retrieve the data on the U.S. Treasury rates, and construct the yield curve. Indicate the date of retrieving the data. Please explain the terms associated with the bonds, namely, corporate bond,...
(please type) Explain the pathogenic mechanism of Tetanus. Be sure to include the importance of inhibitory neurons, neurotransmitters and lockjaw.
Describe in detail the embryonic developmental program; be sure to include the sex determination process in humans. Define homologous and analogous and explain these terms’ significance in relation to male/female genital development.
Model organisms include unicellular bacteria, yeasts, various plants and vertebrate animals, such as fish and mice. Living models are critical for advancement of scientific knowledge and application to human welfare, since they allow discovery of biological processes in an experimental setting. The best model organisms are small, easy to maintain and manipulate. Short lifespans are helpful, as many generations can be examined. Review the Module Notes and reading and video assignments to prepare for this discussion post. As a biologist...
In your own works, please explain the primary types of business entities. Be sure to include the principal characteristics and ownership characteristics of each business entity. What are the pro and cons of each type of entity? Why do different types of business entities allow for unique ownership structures? Do you believe ownership structure an important factor for business owners when selecting a business entity?
What lines of evidence support climate change? (Include at least 3 and explain each.) People often ask if climate change caused a weather event. Is it possible to answer such questions? Why or why not? Please provide an example and an explanation on how climate change has influenced a weather event. (Example: Hurricane Harvey) After finding an example, what evidence did the scientist use to connect the extreme weather event to human-induced climate change? What was the reason why Peter...
