Answer:

D

Explanation:

The fertilized egg has 46 chromosomes since it is fertilized by the sperm which makes 23 + 23= 46 so, it is fertilized by both parents. HINT: The sperm is produced in the uterus by the father. An unfertilized egg has 23 chromosomes since it is not fertilized by it's father. Therefore, it is only fertilized by it's mother since the mother produces the egg through the ovaries.

A grocer stacks oranges in a four-sided pyramid that is 6 layers high. Solve for the number of oranges in the pile.
Vlada [557]
Each layer contains the square of the layer number.
<span>So,
Let's figure out :
1 squared = 1 </span>
<span>2 squared = 4 </span>
<span>3 squared = 9 </span>
<span>4 squared = 16 </span>
<span>5 squared = 25 
</span>6 squared = 36
<span>Hence,
The total number of oranges in the pile = 1+4+9+16+25+36
                                                               = 91 oranges
</span><span>
