Answer: During fertilization, an egg with haploid number of chromosomes unites with a sperm cell with a haploid number of chromosomes to form a zygote with a diploid number of chromosomes.
Explanation: Fertilization is a process in which a sperm cell from a male fuses with an egg from a woman to form a zygote. Sperm cells and eggs are diploid cells and they have half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. During fertilization the haploid chromosomes from the sperm cells combine with the haploid chromosomes from egg to form a zygote with diploid chromosomes. Diploid cells have the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Haploid cells are produced in meiosis while diploid cells are produced in mitosis.
Cells need to be small in order to make exchanging materials faster. This is because, as the size of the cell increases (if we were to increase the size), then the volume increases faster than the surface area. We want more surface area, so this isn't effective if we increase the size. The larger the size also means that it takes more energy for them to move, so there will need to be more cytoplasm, and that's too much effort to generate. Imagine being in math class when you use those cubes, the one huge cube assembles 100 small cubes, that one huge cube has less surface area than those 100 small cubes combined. That's why we need small cells. A larger surface area allows for more exchanges to occur and a larger volume allows for more materials to be brought in or released from the cell at a given time. (The rate of exchange would increase for larger surface areas and volumes of cells.)
Answer: 32.066 atomic mass units
B is the correct option.
That would be the R-value
