The Kong et al. paper we read demonstrated the importance of the natriuretic peptide C (NPPC) and its receptor NPR2 in mammalian chemotaxis.  A. Describe the experimental results that demonstrated that the expression of NPPC comes from the oviduct lining in the ampulla, in response to signals from the oocyte. Be sure to mention the relevant controls in this experiment, and indicate whether this was a find it, lose it, or move it experiment.  B. Describe the experimental result that demonstrated the in vivo (in the organism) requirement for NPPC and its signaling in mammalian fertilization. Be sure to mention whether this was a find it, lose it, or move it experiment.

Matching: for each item from amphibian development, choose the answer from the box that most accurately describes the factor or phenotype you would expect to observe. Note: artificial high concentrations of factors are expected to overwhelm endogenous signals regulating those factors! Each answer is only used once.
