The egg cells have half as many chromosomes as the body cells.

The question is incomplete as it lacks the options which are:

1. The number of chromosomes depends on the size of the scorpion.

2. There are half as many chromosomes in egg cells.

3. There are twice as many chromosomes in egg cells.

4. The number of chromosomes is the same in both.

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-2

Explanation:

The species of Scorpions are a diploid organism with a chromosome number ranging from 16 to 24.  The diploid organism contains homologous chromosomes in pairs which if fuses with another diploid cell will increase the ploidy level to tetraploid and more.

So to maintain the ploidy level, the organism produces gametes undergoing meiosis which reduces the chromosome number to half that is diploid cell becomes a haploid cell.

So, the egg cell contains half of the chromosomes as compared to the somatic cells ad thus option-2 is the correct answer.

Explain the types of acid deposition
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

Acid deposition-usually referred to simply as acid rain-actually includes two forms of pollution, wet and dry. ... In the wet type of acid deposition, these compounds combine with water vapor in the atmosphere to form highly corrosive sulfuric and nitric acids.

Explanation:

The accumulation of acids or acidic compounds on the surface of the Earth, in lakes or streams, or on objects or vegetation near the Earth's surface, as a result of their separation from the atmosphere. Acid deposition can harm the environment in a variety of ways, as by causing the acidification of lakes and streams, the leaching of minerals and other nutrients from soil, and the inhibition of nitrogen fixation and photosynthesis in plants.♦ The accumulation of acids that fall to the Earth dissolved in water is known as wet deposition. Wet deposition includes all forms of acid precipitation such as acid rain, snow, and fog.♦ The accumulation of acidic particles that settle out of the atmosphere or of acidic gases that are absorbed by plant tissues or other surfaces is known as dry deposition.
