<span>The formation of the fertilization envelope (slow-block to polyspermy) requires an increase in the availability of </span>calcium ions.

Slow-block to polyspermy is also called cortical reaction. In this reaction, the sperm will be permanently blocked by cortical granules. The release of calcium ion will trigger this reaction.

juin [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is "Statistical Hypothesis".

Explanation:

Given the example, the breeder wants to find the relationship between the two variables which are the effects of bredding and the face length of the boxer breed. He/She is using the statistics of the face length from the years 1915 and 2015 so the type of hypothesis that should be used is "Statistical Hypothesis" which is used when the hypothesis can be verified statistically. I hope this answer helps.

Organisms convert chemical energy into other types of energy in order to perform certain functions. Match each function to the t
Rama09 [41]

<u>Answer</u>: Thermal energy---->  a polar bear breaks down stored fat to increase its temperature.

Mechanical energy-------> bat emits and receives sounds to locate prey.

Electrical energy------>eel releases a current to defend itself.

Radiant energy -------->  a firefly produces a green glow from its abdomen to attract mates.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • <em>Thermal energy</em> is the energy created in the movement of particles that leads to the production of heat and thus, the temperature increases. Since the polar bears break down fat to increase temperature, the energy generated is thermal energy.  
  • The<em> mechanical energy</em> is defined as the sum of energy of motion and   the position of an object  . Thus the energy produced by the bat to locate its prey is mechanical energy.
  • The energy associated with the production of electromagnetic radiation is<em> radiant energy,</em> thus the glow produced by fireflies is a form of radiant energy.
  • The energy produced due to the movement of electrons is electrical energy. Thus, the energy produced by an eel in the form of electric current is <em>electrical energy.</em>

What is the percent by mass of 8.0g copper is added yo enough zinc to produce 100g an alloy brainly
kogti [31]

Answer:

8%

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of solute = 8 g

Mass of soultion, (mass of alloy) = 100 g

We need to find the percent by mass of 8.0g copper is added to enough zinc to produce 100g an alloy. It can be calculated by the formula as follows :

\text{Mass}\%=\dfrac{\text{Mass of solute}}{\text{Mass of solution}}\times 100\\\\=\dfrac{8}{100}\times 100\\\\=8\%

So, the percent by mass is 8%.

Which combination of items below is INCORRECT? decomposers – bacteria and fungi pioneer community – lichens and mosses commensal
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

<u>Option:</u>Symbiosis in which both organisms benefit ecological niche.

Explanation:

  • <u>Symbiotic association between any living organism:</u>

The symbiotic association is the connection between any organisms, which are either benefited by each other or the relationship can be very negative for the either one, or it may be neutral in nature for both the organisms living inside a symbiotic relationship.

The symbiotic association between the different organisms are of four different natures or levels,which are as follows:

  1. <u>Mutualism:</u> Inside the relationship or connection between any number of organisms in which there is mutual benefit for both the organisms, is called as the mutualism. For example, the insecticides living in the plants roots or any part of its body.
  2. <u>Parasitism:</u>Such a symbiotic relationship is which between any two living organism either one of them is benefited while the other one is harmed by its effect. For example, the tape worms in the living body.
  3. <u>Predation:</u> It is more simple to understand as the prey is hunted down and killed in order to fulfill the needs of the predator.For example the lion and the impala.
  4. <u>Commensalism: </u>The type of association between the living organism in which one of the organism is benefited, while other is neither benefited nor harmed. For example the marine life on the back of the crab's body.

The evolution of populations due to chance is
Nataly [62]

Answer:

D). genetic drift

Explanation:

Genetic drift is the change in an allele frequency over a period of time. This event has to be random and a chance event.

For example: In a population of a flowering plant there are two types of flowers, blue and yellow. Due to a fire many yellow flowers are destroyed by chance. Now the resultant population will have more blue flowers and when they reproduce the population will eventually evolve to have more blue flowers. Effect of genetic variation is more pronounced in a small population since its easy to disturb the allele frequency.
