Q

What are the two poles of an embryo? Define the Gray Crescent.

A

Vegetal Pole. Animal Pole. Animal is where gastrulation is occurring or some fast divison of cells (lively). Gray Crescent refers to the opposite side of sperm penetration. It establishes the body axis.

Q

When is an embryo considered a fetus? What markers are there?

A

Myogenesis and neurogenesis have progressed to where the embryo is capable of motion, and the eyes begin to form. Organogenesis and growth continue. Hair has started to form along with all essential organs. Facial features are beginning to develop. At the end of the 8th week, the embryonic stage is over, and the fetal stage begins.[2]

Q

How does a low pH affect the oxygen distribution curve? Same with an increased temperature.

A

We will see a shift to the left > the oxygen will dissociate at a lower partial pressure. Since we want that oxygen to be deposited faster.

Q

Inducible Operon vs Repressible Operon

A

Inducible = Lac operon. The repressor is constitutively bound until inducer binds to allosteric site. This induces transcription

Repressible = co-repressor binds with repressor to bind to operator to block transcription.
