Explain the early stages of kidney development and the interactions that take place to accomplish development of the kidney. Make sure to explain what each derivative of the intermediate mesoderm will become in humans. Include the reciprocal interactions necessary for proper kidney development.

Blockage of the urinary tract tends to cause decreased GFR (glomerular filtration rates), while nephritis and glomerular damage tend to increase filtration rates. Explain these results based on the net filtration equation for the kidney that relates HPg, HPc, OPg, and OPc. What effect would dehydration have on GFR and why? How would the kidney respond to this? Be sure to include what, if anything, would happen on the local, hormonal, and autonomic levels of control in response to dehydration. How would this be different in someone who was taking ACE inhibitors for high blood pressure? What would happen to the GFR in someone who has protein deficiency?

You are a scientist in a lab that studies how cell fates are specified during development. In particular, you are curious about muscle development. Muscle cells are derived from the mesoderm (one of the three primary germ layers) and are specified rather early in development. You are using the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, as a model system to study the phenomenon of muscle fate specification. You have isolated a line of mutant flies you have named âwhimpyâ (wpy). The wpy phenotype appears to be inherited in a mendelian manner and acts as a recessive lethal, that is, Â¼ embryos from matings between two âcarrierâ flies die early in development. Analysis of the embryos suggests that muscle cells are not made. This suggests that the wildtype (normal) form of the wpy gene is required (necessary) for normal muscle specification during development.

- How would you test the hypothesis that wpy is sufficient to specify muscle cell fate? Explain your answer.

-Suppose wpy encodes a transcription factor. Describe one approach for determining the gene targets of the wpy protein.

1- Describe the stages of C. elegans development. How many
stages were you able to identify?

2. Why is it necessary for C. elegans to pass through several
larval stages, and how is this type of development different
from humans?

3. How does a hermaphrodite produce offspring without mating?

4. What physical (morphological) differences did the mutant worm?What differences in behavior or movement? did you identify thesame
characteristics of the mutant C. elegans?

5. For each mutant phenotype , what do you think
would be the function of the protein produced by thewild-type
gene?
