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.

You place a potato slice in a sucrose solution of unknown concentration, and leave it there for 2 hrs. When you return and weigh
snow_lady [41]

You conclude that the sucrose solution is hypotonic to the potato cells.

Explanation:

A solution is said to be hypotonic with respect to other solution if its concentration is less than the other solution to which it is compared.

A  concentration of solvent molecule in a hypotonic solution is higher than hypertonic solution so solvent moves from hypotonic to hypertonic solution due to osmosis.

The increase in weight of potato shows that it has gained water i.e. the water has entered from the sucrose solution to cells. So, the sucrose solution is hypotonic to the cell sap.

brilliants [131]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The reasoning used is <u>inductive reasoning</u>.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The type of reasoning where the examples are used to derive conclusion it is called as inductive reasoning. The end is the theory or plausible. This implies the end is the piece of thinking that inductive thinking is attempting to demonstrate. Inductive thinking is likewise alluded to as 'circumstances and logical results thinking' or 'base up thinking' since it looks to demonstrate an end first. This is normally gotten from explicit occasions to build up a general end.

As the given examples quotes many examples of desert and then derives conclusion out of it, this is considered as example of inductive reasoning.
