a. NRG is not a morphogen but resembles morphogen activity. Morphogens are different from NRG because NRG were created to induce cell to cell signalling where as Morphogens are used in development of signaling molecules.
b.examples include the following:
1. Dorsalization of mesoderm and neural induction by spemann's organizer during gastrulation.
In this experiment the dorsal lip of blastopore transplanted to opposite side of the embryo,it enables host cells organizing them to form secondary body axis which contains many histotypes and complex structures. The small region of gastrula is used for isolating of new molecules for cell signaling. Synthetic mRNA were injected into ventral side of the embryo and single gene is identified.
2. Head induction method : Dickkopf
150 synthetic mRNA's were injected in truncated BMP receptor. The new gene was expressed in prechordal mesoderm and induced large heads or complete axes (trunk+ head).
Morphogens in development are signaling molecules that emanate from a restricted region of a tissue and...
1. According to the paper, what does lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) do and what does it allow to happen within the myofiber? (5 points) 2. According to the paper, what is the major disadvantage of relying on glycolysis during high-intensity exercise? (5 points) 3. Using Figure 1 in the paper, briefly describe the different sources of ATP production at 50% versus 90% AND explain whether you believe this depiction of ATP production applies to a Type IIX myofiber in a human....
10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
