Answer:

Haploid spores are released to form zygote, which grow into gametophytes.

Explanation:

The life cycle of the fern has 2 different stages :

(1) Sporophyte in which fern releases spores. (2) Gametophyte in which fern releases gametes. Sporophytes plants are diploid, Gametophyte plants are haploid and this type of life cycle is known as Alteration of Generation.

Haploid spore grows into a haploid gametophytes and then the gametophyte is fertilize and grow into a diploid sporophyte. Diploid sporophytes produces spores, completing the life cycle.

Some salts form acidic or basic solutions in water, which is a result of a process called _____.
dem82 [27]
The answer would be salt hydrolysis.

Salt that was made from the combination of weak and strong acid/base could be hydrolyzed and forming another substance. The hydrolysis process will separate the H2O into H+ and OH- and the weak part of the salt will take one of the ions(weak base will take OH-, weak acid will take H+). The result would be increased H+( or OH- ion, leading to change in pH of the solution.

Answer: conditioned

Bobby touches his newborn brother's palm, and his little brother takes hold of Bobby's finger and will not let go. This is known as the conditioned reflex.

Explanation:

A conditioned reflex is a response or behaviour learned after birth. So, once the newborn acquires this learned response, they can perform them even without thinking about it.

Thus, Bobby's brother (the newborn) holding on to his finger and not letting go shows that it is a conditioned reflex
