Regarding a new born panda:

> 東京の上野動物園は、１２日に生まれたパンダの赤ちゃんは女の子だと発表しました。  
>  Tokyo's Ueno zoo announced that the baby panda born on the 12th is a girl.  
>  ２２日の朝、中国の専門家と一緒に赤ちゃんの体を調べて **わかりました** 。  
>  On the morning of the 22nd (the zoo) together with Chinese experts examined
> the baby's body.

What is the purpose of adding 分かりました to the end of this sentence? How does the
nuance change if you omit this verb?

調べました versus 調べてわかりました
> ２２日の朝、中国の専門家と一緒に赤ちゃんの体を調べて **わかりました** 。

On the morning of the 22nd (the zoo) together with Chinese experts examined
the baby's body and **found/figured it out**.

What they found/figured out must be mentioned in the sentence right before
this.

answer
わかりました means "found out" or "learned"

調べてわかりました means "examined and found out", that is, "found out by examining"

So the sentence means "We found this out by examining the baby's body together
with Chinese experts on the morning of the 22nd". The preceding sentence in
the text tells us that Ueno Zoo has announced that the baby panda born on the
12th was female. Pandas are probably very protective of their newborn infants,
so it was ten days before the zoo people could get a proper look at the
infant.
