Answer:

3. haploid; diploid

Explanation:

Sperm is male gamete or often called male reproductive cell. During the process of spermatogenesis, reductional division (meiosis) occurs in the spermatocytes and spermatids are formed which further mature to sperms. Thus as a result of meiosis, their chromosome number is reduced to half and thus they become haploid cells. During oogensis, eggs are also formed as a result of meiosis which reduces the chromosome number and so eggs are also haploid.

When during fertilization, these two haploid nucleus of these cells fuse together, they form a diploid zygote.

)What type of questions cannot be solved by scientific methods?
lana [24]
Hi!

Questions that we cannot answer with science are going to be ones which are subjective, or, opinion related.

For example, could we follow the scientific method in order to successfully see that Mandy's favourite colour is 'blue' and her grandma's favourite food is 'pizza'? 

Well... I... I guess, but... It doesn't make sense! These have nothing to do with science, as they are all just opinionated! 

Hopefully, you get the picture. =)

Which description is an example of converting gravitational energy into kinetic energy?
Troyanec [42]
When an object from a pause state begins to move the potential energy is changed into kinetic energy. One of the example is the yo-yo, it has stored energy due to its position. Once the yo-yo begins its fall the potential energy will change to kinetic energy and vice versa.
