X shows a medical condition which takes its technical name from its resemblance with A . Effects of something named after B has been postulated as the reason for the origin of the myth surrounding A .
Solve for X , A and B .
X
A
B
Janiceps ( X ) takes its name after the Roman god Janus ( A ) . The Janus myth is postulated to be a result of the condition Diprosopus which is caused by anomalies in the Sonic Hedgehog ( B ) homolog .
New Year , so i guess one should be liberal and award full points to all who were almost there .

X-Conjoined Twins
A-Janus Condition
B-Sonic HedgeHog Protein
X : Conjoined twins (janiceps)
A : Janus
A: conjoined twins with head/thoracic fusion
Janiceps would be 2 faces on opposite sides of a conjoined head
B:Janus
C:Sonic hedgehog
A and B look like Janus and Sonic the hedgehog
X = Diprosopus
A = Janus
B = Sonic Hedgehog
x- janiceps
a-janus the god of doors after hum the month january is named
b-sonic the hedge hog
funda–diprosopus is a congenital disorder in which part or all of the face is duplicated on the head.
One of a class of genes involved in drosophila development, called hedgehog genes, has been named “sonic hedgehog” after the character. also the janus kinase pathway (JAK) IS NOW ALSO called sonic hedgehog pathway.
Diprosopus – craniofacial duplication
It is the result of a protein called sonic hedgehog homolog.
A – Janus – Roman God of Gates
conjoined twins a.k.a Janus Twins, Janus, Sonic the Hedgehog(the thing causing the condition)
x)diprosopus
a)janus
b)sonic hedgehog
X – Diprosopus
A – Janus
B – Sonic hedgehog homolog from Sonic The Hedgehog
X = Diprosopus ,A = Janus, B = Sonic the Hedgehog
B) Janus
Quoting Jyothi
