A cell that just fertilized has to divide 6 times to form a 64 cell blastomere.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Human reproduction begins with the fusion of male gamete sperm and female gamete ovum. The fusion of sperm and ovum forms the zygote that is diploid. The zygote then undergoes mitotic division to develop into embryo.  

The zygote first divides into two and the two individual cells divide again to form four individual cells and so on. Thus the number of cells after each division can be represented by the equation 2^n  where n is the number of divisions.  in the question it is given that the blastomere has 64 cells.

2^n=64  

n=6

This means that the fertilized cell has to divide 6 times to develop into 64-celled blastomere.

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

1)required for cellular respiration(Oxygen only)

2) net diffusion from alveoli to lung capillaries(Oxygen only)

3)sometimes transported as bicarbonate(Carbon Dioxide Only)

4)net diffusion from body tissues to blood(Carbon Dioxide Only)

5)net diffusion from lung capillaries to alveoli(Carbon Dioxide Only)

6)waste product of cellular respiration(Carbon Dioxide Only)

7)enters alveoli during inhalation(Both Oxygen and carbon dioxide)

8)transported by hemoglobin(Both Oxygen and carbon dioxide)

Explanation:

Gas exchange is a mechanism that helps the body to get the necessary Oxygen that is required for cellular respiration to take place

There is diffusion of oxygen to capillaries that are present in the lungs from the alveoli.

Gas exchange is a mechanism that is also responsible for the body to get rid of waste such as carbon dioxide,
