Meredith is viewing a solar eclipse using a solar sunglasses. She is located in the penumbra of the Moon's shadow. Which type of eclipse is Meredith experiencing?

The eclipse that Meredith is experiencing is a partial solar eclipse, which is the one that can be observed from the penumbra.

Explanation:

A solar eclipse occurs as a consequence of the interposition of the moon between the earth and the sun, which causes the sun -during the day- to be hidden for the areas where the moon produces shadows on the earth's surface.

Penumbra is the outermost area of shadows produced by the moon during a solar eclipse, and what can be seen from there is a partially hidden sun, so it must be seen with sunglasses or special filters to avoid damage to the retina.

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.
