Question

Homeotic mutants had some strange phenotypes that drew the attention of researchers. Upon investigation, they led to the discovery of a set of genes that have a unique role in the development of many organisms. What genes were these, and what is their role? View Available Hint(s) Homeotic mutants led to the discovery of maternal effect genes. O Homeotic mutants led to the discovery of the only conserved genes known as Hox genes across species. O The homeotic mutants led to the discovery of programed cell death. O Homeotic mutants led to the discovery of Hox genes, whose products are transcription factors that lead to differentiated cells.

Answer 1

4rth is correct answer because these gene's transcription factor are responsible for making an organ or deciding that what will fate of cell of that area. Would it be thorax, abdomen etc?
