The ovum or egg cell is the part of female reproductive gamete present in oogamous organisms. The ovum is larger, and visible to the naked eye compare to motile sperm cell, and egg cell are not capable of active movement.

The cytoplasm of an unfertilized egg is contain unevenly distributed proteins, mRNA, other organelles, and substances. Many proteins are present in a concentrated form at the one end of the cell, and helping to provide positional information to the growing embryo.

What is the pH if 20 mL of pH = 2 solution is diluted to a final volume of 600 mL?

Mashutka [201]

Explanation:

Hydrogen atoms contain 1 proton and 1 electron while being devoid of neutrons. When they lose their electron they form an ion or H+, a particle carrying a unit of positive charge. pH measures how basic or acidic a water-based solutions are, with a formula for pH is

pH = -log[H+].

...where pH is -base 10 log of the concentration of hydrogen ions within the solution.

Initial volume= 20 mL

Final volume= 600 mL

# of dilutions= $\frac{600}{20}$ = 30
