Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The question mentions the development of the parathyroid, and since fish do not have parathyroids, it can be inferred that the expression of Gcm-2 in fish is likely to occur in a different location. Of the options given, the most reasonable location for Gcm-2 expression in fish would be the gills, which play a role in regulating ion exchange and maintenance of electrolyte balance, functions that are related to the parathyroid in other species. Therefore, option E, "Gcm-2 was expressed in the gills," is the best choice.
