In the process of embryonic development, which stage comes first?
a. gastrula
b. blastocyst
c. morula
d. blastocoel

Ans.

Embryogenesis or embryonic development is defined as a process that involves formation and development of a zygote into embryo. The fertilized egg or zygote undergoes mitotic divisions through cleavage and divides rapidly.

The first stage of embryonic development is known as morula that represents a 16 cells consisting solid ball-like structure. The morula later develops into blastula.

Thus, the correct answer is option C). 'morula.'

answer:

the water molecules are transferred from the roots to the stem or top parts of the tall tree because of important properties of water which are adhesion, cohesion and capillary action. cohesion is the property of water molecules keeps water molecules in a combined state by sharing of bonds between them at the atomic level. adhesion allows the interaction of water molecules with other substances or substrate. adhesion will cause the attachment of water molecules to the wall of the vessel (xylem) of the plant. capillary action occurs when the adhesive force to the vessel wall is stronger than the cohesive force between water molecules. capillary action mimics the transfer of water from a tube or pipe. in this way water utilizes its property to transfer water from down to top level of the plant.
