Q

“<b>Hox genes vshomeoboxes?</b>”

A

Hox genes only occur in bilateral animals and control formation of the dorsal/ventral axis in embryo, while homeoboxes occur in all eukaryotes and control gene expression

Q

“<b>Uniamarous vs biamarous?</b>”

A

“<span>A uniramous limb comprises a single series of segments attached end-to-end. A biramous limb, however, branches into two, and each branch consists of a series of segments attached end-to-end.</span>”
