Answer;

Sulfur hexafluoride

Explanation;

-Sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) is an inorganic, colorless, odorless, and non-flammable greenhouse gas.

-Sulfur hexafluoride has an octahedral geometry, consisting of six fluorine atoms attached to a central sulfur atom. It is a hypervalent molecule.

-Being a nonpolar gas, it is poorly soluble in water but soluble in nonpolar organic solvents. It is generally transported as a liquefied compressed gas.

-It is used in the electrical industry as a gaseous dielectric medium for high-voltage circuit breakers, switchgear, and other electrical equipment, often replacing oil filled circuit breakers (OCBs) that can contain harmful PCBs.

uysha [10]

Recording from single neurons in the brain has shown that neurons responding to specific types of stimuli are often clustered in specific areas. These results support the idea of localization of function.

Localization of function is an idea used in neuroscience. It refers to the idea that functions can be attributed to specific regions of the brain (different brain areas are specialized for different functions).

You have learned that the fusion of egg and sperm produces a zygote. But how does the sperm reach the egg, and how does the zygo
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

Pollen grain lands on stigma

Explanation:

A) Pollen grain lands on stigma

  • pollen tube grows down the style
  • generative cell divides, forming two sperm
  • two sperm are discharged to them female gametophyte
  • sperm fuse with the egg and two polar nuclei
  • zygote forms and divides into a terminal cell and a basal cell
  • cells of embryo differentiate into three tissue types---- seed dries out and becomes dormant.

B)

  1. During pollination, a pollen grain is transferred from an anther to a stigma. Once the pollen grain lands on a suitable stigma, it germinates and forms a pollen tube, a structure that grows down through the style to the ovary.
  2. Once in the pollen tube, the generative cell from the pollen grain divides by mitosis, forming two sperm. The sperm travel down the pollen tube and are discharged into the female gametophyte. In a process called double fertilization, one sperm fertilizes the egg, forming the zygote; the other sperm fuses with two polar nuclei in the female gametophyte, forming a triploid (3n) nucleus. The zygote develops into the plant embryo, and the triploid nucleus divides and gives rise to the endosperm. Double fertilization prevents the waste of the plant's resources by ensuring that the nutrient-rich endosperm only develops if the egg is fertilized.
  3. After double fertilization, the ovule starts to develop into a seed containing the plant embryo. As the embryo develops, the three tissue systems are established, and the cotyledons (seed leaves) form. The seeds of many species dry out as they mature. These dry seeds lie dormant until suitable germination conditions occur.
