Hey, everyone. Let's take a look at this question together, which of the following doesn't belong to the major category of psychotic jeans. Let's recall what we know about the different categories of psychotic genes to figure out which of the following do not belong. So we know that these psychotic genes are those genes which are expressed in the developing embryo after fertilization and they are responsible for regulating embryo development. And so the major category of psychotic genes includes the transcription dr jeans as well as a pop tosa streams and lastly gap jeans. And so looking at our answer choices, we can see transcription factor genes, apoptosis, jeans, and gap jeans, which we know those are all included in the major category of psychotic jeans. And the only one that doesn't belong is answer choice. A maternal effect genes. The correct answer because we know that maternal effect genes also known as egg polarity genes are not psychotic jeans. So answer choice A is the correct answer because it's the only one here that doesn't belong to the major category of psychotic jeans. I hope you found this video to be helpful. Thank you and goodbye.
