Gene
Genetics
Homeotic complex (Hox) genes are defined as a group of related genes that specify the anterior-posterior axis and segment identity of metazoan organisms during early embryonic development. These are situated very close to one another on the chromosome in groups of clusters. The orders of these genes located on the chromosomes are the same as…

Zoology
Through years of evolution, most animals have evolved their own unique defense mechanisms, enabling them to survive effectively in the wild. The squid, a member of the Mollusca class Cephalopod, is a prominent example of evolution by natural selection to adapt to new environments. The newfound predators that hunt by speed and eyesight will be…

Genetics
Population
Altering this extended phenotype, or ability to build bowers resulted in no change of mating, but males that built successful bowers showed to be less aggressive with other males in the population. This is important in maintaining polymorphic populations (Measles, 2014). In my self-created scenario, the focus is on the small male population of child…
