Questions and Answers

What is unique about the development of cells in C.elegans compared to mammals?

  • There is little variation in patterns of cell lineage between individuals (correct)
  • The neural system forms before organogenesis
  • Cell development is dependent on cellular cues
  • There is high variation in patterns of cell lineage between individuals
  • What is the primary step during organogenesis in vertebrates?

  • Formation of the circulatory system
  • Formation of the skeletal system
  • Formation of the digestive system
  • Formation of the neural system (correct)
  • What is the role of growth factors during neural system formation?

  • They induce the formation of epidermal cells
  • They inhibit the formation of neural tube
  • They promote the formation of neural plate
  • They signal cells to become epidermis cells (correct)
  • What would happen if signaling by growth factors were disrupted?
