Biology

Answer

An acid that breaks down completely and gives off many ions, or protons, is considered to be a strong acid. ex H₂SO₄

If you place strong acid into water it dissociate acid into H⁺ ions

Water is polar solvent(H⁺ and OH⁻), which has partial positive charge on one side and partial negative charge on the other side.

Strong acids readily dissociate in polar solvents to give H+ ions.

Where as Oil is a non polar solvent it has same charge all over so no dissociation of strong acid will take place.

In two or more sentences, analyze why internal fertilization is more efficient than external fertilization?
almond37 [142]

Answer:

Although more offsprings are produced by the process of external fertilization but the process of internal fertilization is more efficient as compared to external fertilization. This is because, in external fertilization, it is more difficult for the sperm to find the egg and fertilize it. Even after fertilization, it might be that the zygote gets eaten up by a predator. There are none such risks in internal fertilization. The zygote is protected during the internal fertilization which makes this process more efficient.

How is the formation of of gametes in males similar to the formation of gametes in females
ioda

Gametes are the cells used during sexual reproduction to produce a new individual organism or zygote. The male gamete, sperm, is a smaller, mobile cell that meets up with the much larger and less mobile female gamete, egg or ova. Both sperm and egg are only haploid cells. They only carry half of the chromosomes needed.
