Document Summary

Like all animal mothers, they make eggs they can be fertilized: have a diploid nucleus. When humans are a single celled zygote, nucleus divides but so does the cell: go from one cell 2 4 8, fruit flies don"t do this. In cell development, drosophila, nuclei divide but cell does not: divides until 500 nuclei in the same zygote cell. Get cellularized blastoderm stage: each cell has nucleus captured in it. Blastula ends up becoming highly segmented and those segments end up being represented in the adult. It is important for nuclei to know where they are in the embryo: how they figure out if they"re at head or tail end. Two organisms from one genome: a larva and a fly. In flies, once gastrula develop further, they develop into a worm. Our genome codes for the production of one animal. But this genome codes for 2 animals: worm and a fly.
