Below is shown a simplified hypothetical organism, eggman. You have made a synthetic gene, gene1, and intend to create a transgenic eggman line that expresses gene1 across all regions of its body throughout development. Given the scheme below, describe the smallest/simplest transgene that could be added to the eggman genome to accomplish expression of gene1 throughout all four main domains of eggman. Your answer should interfere with other genes as little as possible, and your answer does not need to name components related to genomic integration methods, only the functional transgene locus that could drive gene1 expression throughout eggman.

Identify the tooth part that #1 is pointing to.

Which stage of tooth development is described and shown in the photo? A band of epithelial tissue called the dental lamina connects the developing tooth bud to the epithelial layer of the mouth.

Identify if the developmental anomaly described below is a genetic factor or an environmental factor. A child having a tetracycline stain on the teeth due to the mother taking an antibiotic during pregnancy.

Which stage of tooth development is described and shown in the photo? The outer two layers form with the root and canal forms. Dental tissues fully mineralize, once crown and root develop, it moves toward eruption.

Which stage of tooth development is described and shown in the photo? The primary layer becomes the enamel organ which will form the outer layer of the tooth. Mesenchyme begins to develop the dental papilla

Which stage of tooth development is described and shown in the photo? Epithelial cells become ameloblastsPeripheral cells become odontoblastsInner cells become cementoblasts

Which stage of tooth development is described and shown in the photo? The bud grows from the dental lamina that penetrates growing mesenchyme
