1 Giant protein is found in the anterior and posterior
2 bicoid mRNA is tethered to the anterior pole
3 cellularization of the syncytium occurs
4 Nurse cells transfer mRNA to the oocyte
5 segment polarity genes are expressed
6 hunchback mRNAis translated
7 Gurkn signals the posterior of the follicle
8 even-skipped is transcribed
9 fertilization of the egg to form the zygote

Final answer:

The order of events in Drosophila development from earliest to latest is explained.

Step-by-step explanation:

The order in which the events occur during Drosophila development, from the earliest to the latest, is as follows:
