Mammalian fertilization comprises sperm migration through the female reproductive tract, biochemical and morphological changes to sperm, and sperm-egg interaction in the oviduct. Recent gene knockout approaches in mice have revealed that many factors previously considered important for fertilization are largely dispensable, or if they are essential, they have an unexpected function. These results indicate that what has been observed in in vitro fertilization (IVF) differs significantly from what occurs during “physiological” fertilization. This Review focuses on the advantages of studying fertilization using gene-manipulated animals and highlights an emerging molecular mechanism of mammalian fertilization.

Roads are sometimes salted in the winter to prevent ice build up. When the ice and snow melt, the water can also carry salt off

valkas [14]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<em>When the salt water resulting from using salt to thaw ice and snow is washed off the road, the nearby plants along the roadside would be subjected to osmotic stress due to the lower water potential of the soil water when compared to that of their cells. Consequently, the plants are expected to lose water to the surrounding salt solution until an equilibrium is established between their cytosols and the soil solution. </em>

Plants produce carbon dioxide as a product of cellular respiration. But you know that plants release oxygen, not carbon dioxide.

77julia77 [94]

Carbon dioxide is released during respiration but used up during photosynthesis. The reason that plants release oxygen is because the amount of carbon dioxide released by the plants is, for the most part, used in photosynthesis; however, all of the oxygen produced is not used in respiration. Thus, the net outflow of gas from a plant is that of oxygen.
