Vinil7 [7]3 years ago

Answer: Option (D) and (E) are the correct answers.

Explanation:

Water is a polar solvent and it is known that like dissolves like. Hence, polar solutes easily dissolve in water.

For example, alcohols, amines etc are polar solvents.

Whereas hydrocarbons like methane, ethane, benzene etc have covalent bonding in their atoms. Hence, they are non-polar in nature due to which they are unable to dissolve in water or any other polar solvent.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options CH3CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2OH and C5H10O5 will dissolve in water based on polarity.

water interacts with polar substances such as -OH groups but not with non polar substance such as CH3. Based on polarity, D and E have high polarity and dissolve in water.

Explain what happens to the zona pellucida after the egg is fertilised ​
vodka [1.7K]

write it in your own words:

"In humans, five days after the fertilization, the blastocyst performs zona hatching; the zona pellucida degenerates and decomposes, to be replaced by the underlying layer of trophoblastic cells. The zona pellucida is essential for oocyte growth and fertilization."

The zona pellucida supports communication between oocytes and follicle cells during oogenesis; protects oocytes, eggs, and embryos during development, and regulates interactions between ovulated eggs and free-swimming sperm during and following fertilization.

Describe relationship between cytoplasm and nucleus in a cell
Anika [276]
"The nucleus contains the cell's DNA. This genetic material provides the instructions for building proteins and, thus, dictates the structure and function of the cell throughout its life. ... In some types of cells, cytoplasm is also used to move the cell itself or to move organelles within the cell."( I found this in an article on google)
