'Red shift' is a key concept for astronomers. The term can be understood literally - the wavelength of the light is stretched, so the light is seen as 'shifted' towards the red part of the spectrum.

Hope this helps.

Redshift occurs when the light source is moving away from you or when the space between you and the source is stretched. Redshift occurs when the source of light is moving away from the observer. So when astronomers see redshift in the light from a galaxy, they know that the galaxy is moving away from Earth.

crimeas [40]

In the block to polyspermy, entry of the sperm's contents causes calcium ion levels in the oocyte's cytoplasm to rise, triggering the cortical reaction.

In biology, polyspermy describes the fertilization of an egg by more than one sperm. Diploid organisms normally contain two copies of each chromosome, one from each parent.

The cell resulting from polyspermy, on the other hand, contains three or more copies of each chromosome—one from the egg and one each from multiple sperm. Usually, the result is an unviable zygote. This may occur because sperm are too efficient at reaching and fertilizing eggs due to the selective pressures of sperm competition.

The cortical reaction is a calcium-dependent exocytotic process in which the content of secretory granules is released into the perivitellin space immediately after fertilization, which serves to prevent polyspermic fertilization.

<h2>Hey There!</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>

\huge\boxed{\text{Equal and Opposite Force on the Person}}

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>\Huge\textbf{3rd Law of Motion}</h2>

\large\texttt{"To Every action there is always an equal and opposite reaction"}

Consider two bodies A & B which collide with each other. If F_{AB} be the force exerted by the body A on Body B. Then Body B will also exert force F_{BA} on Body A which is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction.

                                         F_{AB} = - F_{BA}

The force exerted by Body A on Body B is called Action, and the force exerted by the Body B on Body A is called Reaction.
