Egg Polarity Genes Quiz 1

1- Morphogens are
subtances that elicit multiple responses at the same concentration levels in a given tissue
determinants of the dorso-ventral body axes
substances that specify cell identity as a function of its concentration
localized to the dorsal surface of the early embryo


2- Localized signal produced by follicular cells at the ventral surface of the drosophila egg results in induction of
dorsal

follicular transcription factor


3- Concentration is highest in the ventral area and lowest in the dorsal area of the drosophila embryo
dorsal
bicoid
dpp
twist


4- Localized at the anterior end of the embryo
