Segmentation genes in Drosophila are divided into three groups (gap, pair rule and segment polarity) based on their mutant phenotype. Below are some of the major genes expressed in a sequential manner (with respect to the groups) affecting segmentation pattern.
P. Hairy paired→ tailless →patched.
Q. Hunchback →even-skipped→ fushi tarazu→ wingless.
R. Odd-skipped →giant →paired →wingless
S. Tailless →hairy →fushi tarazu →gooseberry.
Which of the above sequence(s) of genes expressed from early to late embryo is/are correct?

1
S only
2
R and Q
3
P and Q
4
