Answer:

The fusion of two gametes to form a diploid zygote is called SYNGAMY.

Explanation:

During sexual reproduction process, exchange of DNA usually occur and this introduces diversity into the offspring that are produced. One of the ways by which exchange of DNA take place is called syngamy. Syngamy involves the bonding together of two sex cells leading to the formation of cell that has double amount of the chromosomes in the parent cells. The two cells that bond together are called gametes while the diploid cells formed is called zygote.  The major function of syngamy is creation of variation; the genotypes in the formed zygote differ from those of the gametes.

Explanation:

The major blood types include; A, B,AB and O. Type A has A antigens, B has B antigens AB has both A and B antigens and O has neither.

A person's immune system produces antibodies against any antigens not found in his blood.

Before giving a blood transfusion, it is necessary to determine the blood type of the recipient and that of the donor so that blood can be appropriately matched. This is called blood typing. This helps prevent ABO incompatibility which might lead to several fatal symptoms and reactions. These include;

2. The best way to determine if you are using a halogenated solvent is to:
goldfiish [28.3K]
The best way to determine the presence of halogens is by adding a silver nitrate solution to the solvent. This is because all halogens, except for fluorine, produce a precipitate with silver nitrate solution.Chlorine produces a white precipitate, bromine produces a pale cream colored precipitate and iodine produces a yellow colored precipitate.
If further testing is required, concentrated sulfuric acid may be added. The sulfuric acid will produce misty fumes with fluorine and chlorine, brown fumes with bromine and purple fumes with iodine.

hope this helped :)
