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.

Why do plant need food
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

They need food in order to gain the initial energy they need.

Explanation:

Plants unlike humans don't get food by primary sources (aka, hunting). instead they retrieve their food from the suns rays. Without the suns rays they are able to convert this energy into glucose for themselves, and will essentially die because they do not have that source of food to give them the energy they need to survive.

Use the diagram to answer each question. How do volcanoes form at A?  
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

Volcanoes are formed at the divergent and convergent plate boundaries.  

<u>During a divergent plate motion, along the mid-oceanic ridge, seafloor spreading takes place. Here it is represented by location B. Due to this, the magma becomes extremely hot and exerts an upward pressure towards the seafloor</u><u>. </u><u>As a result of which the ocean floor slowly rises up forming sea volcanoes.</u> The eruption takes place and the lava forms and deposits on the seafloor, near and along the mid-oceanic ridge. As this region undergoes continuous spreading, so the crust comprised of these rocks slowly moves away from the ridge.
