Cpr, or cardiopulmonary resuscitation, is a first-aid technique to save lives. it involves compressions of the patient's chest cavity. which description is the best description of the functions of chest compressions in cpr? chest compressions are done to pump the heart. chest compressions are done to strengthen the rib bones. chest compressions increase carbon dioxide inhalation. chest compressions allow the patient's muscles to wake up.

fertilization, pictured in figure 24.23a is the process in which gametes (an egg and sperm) fuse to form a zygote. the egg and sperm each contain one set of chromosomes. to ensure that the offspring has only one complete diploid set of chromosomes, only one sperm must fuse with one egg. in mammals, the egg is protected by a layer of extracellular matrix consisting mainly of glycoproteins called the zona pellucida. when a sperm binds to the zona pellucida, a series of biochemical events, called the acrosomal reactions, take place. in placental mammals, the acrosome contains digestive enzymes that initiate the degradation of the glycoprotein matrix protecting the egg and allowing the sperm plasma membrane to fuse with the egg plasma membrane, as illustrated in figure 24.23b. the fusion of these two membranes creates an opening through which the sperm nucleus is transferred into the ovum. the nuclear membranes of the egg and sperm break down and the two haploid genomes condense to form a diploid genome.

explanation:

the correct answer is b. possesses the characteristic of compartmentalization of organelles, wherein the organelles are bound by membranes.

explanation:

i believe it is "they are not used up by reactions" as the answer to your question, text me back if this is correct because i just learned this.

c

explanation:
