Mention four (4) important outcomes of gastrulation. Your answer must mention four concepts:(a) qualitative change: Launches major qualitative change, (b) cell specialization:Starts the process of cell specialization, (c) flexibility:Reduces developmental flexibility, and (d) resulting layers:Separates the embryo into 3 layers Use complete sentences when stating the four outcomes. *The resulting layers must be named AND briefly described. When describing the layers, mention what each layer results in.

Understanding the causes of infertility can be valuablein developing new birth control methods. Cite a type ofcontraceptive based on each of the following causes ofinfertility:(a) failure to ovulate due to a hormonal imbalance;(b) a large fibroid tumor that disturbs the uterine lining;(c) endometrial tissue blocking uterine tubes;(d) low sperm count (too few sperm per ejaculate).
Answer the following questions briefly (3-5 sentences only). 1. Why does oxygen consumption increase during gastrulation? 2. What is the purpose of applying tiny particles of carbon to the surface of the embryo? 3. What processes cause the change in the form of the embryo during gastrulation 4. Does the environment play a role in the movement of cells? 5. Why is the nuclei of the early cleavage cells considerably larger than they are in ordinary somatic cells?
Why are the cell movements (i.e. invagination, involution, epiboly) important in proper development of the embryo?

Arrange the cytoplasmic rearrangement of the fertilized egg of the tunicate, Styela partita in consecutive order. (I) After sperm entry into the vegetal hemisphere of the oocyte, the yellow cortical cytoplasm and the clear cytoplasm derived from the breakdown of the oocyte nucleus contract vegetally toward the sperm.(II) Before fertilization, yellow cortical cytoplasm surrounds the gray (yolky) inner cytoplasm. (III) The final position of the yellow cytoplasm marks the location where cells give rise to tail muscles.(IV) As the sperm pronucleus migrates animally toward the newly formed egg pronucleus, the yellow and clear cytoplasm move with it.
An 18-year-old woman consulted a physician because of her failureto initiate menses. She had experienced normal breast developmentat age 13, but no pubic or axillary hair had ever appeared. Her heightwas 5 feet 6 inches, weight 119 pounds, blood pressure 110/70,and pulse 60 beats/minute. Her physical examination confirmedthe presence of well-developed breasts and the external genitaliaof a normal female. However, the vagina ended in a blind pouch,and there was no evidence of a cervix, ovaries, or a uterus. Withinthe inguinal area, the examining physician could palpate a small,spherical mass on each side. Is this patient’s genotype most likelyXX, XO, or XY? Explain why the genotype you selected is consistent with the manifestations
Epithelium–Mesenchyme transitions (MET or EMT) are crucial morphogenetic events occurring during gastrulation. Give at least 3 specific examples of embryonic structures that develop in this manner, and the regulatory mechanisms that govern this transition. How would our understanding of this regulation affect cancer prognosis and treatment?
A human is a complex organism that develops from a zygote. Briefly explain some of the the steps in this development process in the form of a paragraph. In your answer, be sure to: 1) explain how a zygote formed, 2) compare the genetic content of the zygote to the body cells of the parents, 3) identify the structure in which embryonic/fetal development usually occurs within, and 4) identify the structure that forms, which provides nourishment and waste removal to/from the developing baby.
If gastrulation did not occur properly and one of the primarygerm layers wasn’t formed, would the embryo be able tosurvive? Why or why not?
Trophoblast or ICM? If cells choose to become trophoblast, they will end up in the placenta. If they choose to become ICM, they will give rise to the 3 germ layers that will make up the rest of the body of the embryo. Answer the following questions: What will guide them to make the right decision? Do they have a choice?
