Answer:A. the same number of chromosomes as was contained in the zygote.

Explanation:a zygote is formed when the sperm fertilize the egg .

After fertilization,the zygote undergoes cleavage.cleavage is the mitotic Division of the cells of a zygote to produce daughter cells.

These daughter cells are called blastomere,which contains the same number of chromosomes as the parent cells.the cells formed do not grow in size but continues to divide, forming a mass of cells.

This mass may be solid at first but as cleavage continues,the cells move away from the center,leaving a fluid filled cavity in the middle (blastocoel).

The mass of cells are called blastula.

Why is it more common for birds to have nests with a few eggs rather than just one or a lot?
Vlad1618 [11]

Explanation:

The large size of a egg makes it difficult for the female to retain more than a single one egg at a time - carrying eggs would make flying harder and require more energy. (Bird eggs vary in size from the tiny 0.2 gramme eggs of hummingbirds to the enormous 9 kilogram eggs of the extinct elephant bird.)

Just as an aircraft cannot fly if it is overweight, all female birds must dispense with the fertile egg as soon as it is formed. And because the egg is such a protein-rich high-nuitrition prize to all sorts of predators, birds must find a secure place to hatch their eggs. Although birds' eggs appear to be fragile, they are in fact extremely robust. The oval shape applies the same rules of engineering as an arched bridge; the convex surface can withstand considerable pressure without breaking. This is essential if the egg is not to crack under the weight of the sitting bird. It takes 26 pounds of pressure to break a swan's egg and 120 pounds to smash the egg of an ostrich.

How was the knowledge of ecological succession applied to the reclamation of land damaged due to mining?
Mandarinka [93]

After mining, to reclaim the land, the depression is filled with rocks then the top is filled with loosely graded soil. Introduction of early succession plants is important before big trees can grow. The early succession plants help in the breaking down of the rocks into soil hence making the topsoil deeper to support trees.
