Why is frog egg laid in long gelatin fluid
Naya [18.7K]
Although amphibious frogs live on land and in water, they must lay their eggs in water or the eggs will dry up, effectively killing the offspring inside. Frog eggs are covered with a glycoprotein, which helps keep the eggs moist. This glycoprotein has to keep in contact with a source of moisture, such as water.

Which best describes the limits of science?
vichka [17]

A. Science cannot answer philosophical questions. Philosophical questions could be described as rheoretical questions, such as "what is the purpose of life?" These questions' answers can very from person to person. Science answers questions such as "what is the boiling point of water?", or "what is the chemical structure of water? These are both questions that have the same answer, no matter who is asking them. You just have to have the ability to accurately measure and observe the things involved, or in this case, the temperature of the water when it starts to boil or whe different atoms in the water.

Let's examine the other questions.

B. science can answer only mathematical questions. As you saw in the explanation above, science can also answer other questions, as long as they have a definite answer that we can accurately measure.

C.Science can answer any questions. Again, we have already saw that science cannot answer philosophical questions, so science cannot answer any question.

D. Science can answer any difficult questions. As with the example of the chemical stucture of water, we can answer difficult questions with science. This may seem simple to you, but it would be very difficult if it was not already known!

Andre listed some properties of electromagnetic waves.
Marysya12 [62]

The right answer is Electromagnetic waves can transfer energy through empty space.  

Electromagnetic radiation refers to a form of linear energy transfer. Visible light is electromagnetic radiation, but is only a small slice of the broad electromagnetic spectrum. The propagation of this radiation does not need material to move.

if we take the example of solar energy, it spreads in space, the atmosphere until reaching the earth.

Once it reaches a material, it gives rise to many phenomena such as attenuation, absorption, diffraction and refraction, redshift, interferences, echoes, electromagnetic parasites and biological effects.

Pani-rosa [81]
The horse will give 32 chromosomes and donkey will give 31 chromosomes to the offspring.
The offspring has 63 in total.
 It is odd so it can not produce normal germ cell. So it is sterile.
