Pax-6 usually causes the production of a type of light-receptor pigment. In vertebrate eyes, through, a different gene (the rh gene family) is responsible for the light-receptor pigments of the retina. The m gene, like Pax-6, is ancient. In the marine ragworm, for example, the rh gene causes production of c-opsin, which helps regulate the worm's biological clock. Which of these most likely vertebrate vision? A) In animals more ancient than ragworms, the rh gene(s) coded for visual receptor pigments; in lineages more recent than ragworms, rh has flip-flopped several times between producing biological clock opsins and visual receptor pigments. B) The Pax-6 gene mutated the rh gene among early mammals. C) During vertebrate evolution, the rh gene for biological opsin was co-opted as a gene for visual receptor pigments. D) Pax-6 was lost from the mammalian genome and replaced by the rh gene much later.

Which of the following best describes the expensive tissue hypothesis? brains require more energy, so the gut had to be reduced, and larger brains and tool use led to higher quality diets. increasing body size means that homo neanderthalensis had to include more fat in its diet. brains require more energy, so the gut had to be reduced as brains got bigger. brains require more fat, so the gastrointestinal viscera (gut) had to expand, and hands were needed to acquire more food.
