If a line of earthquake epicenters on a map cuts through the center of an ocean, this indicates
a
a plate boundalmy is in the center of the ocean.
b
the center of a tectonic plate is at the center of an
ocean.
nothing since scientists can not gain information
about tectonics from earthquake epicenters.
d
the seismometer incorrectly identified where the
epicenters of earthquakes were.

b

Explanation:

I'm not sure so don't answer it right away lol

but I think it's right lol

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.
