What are the reactants for oxidation reaction?

Biology
1 answer:
Alexxx [7]1 year ago
6 0

The reactant that brings about the oxidation is called the oxidising agent, and that reagent is itself reduced by the reducing agent.

Oxidation occurs when a reactant loses electrons during the reaction. Reduction occurs when a reactant gains electrons during the reaction. This often occurs when metals are reacted with acid.

Oxidation is loss of electrons (OIL RIG). Therefore, an oxidising agent takes electrons from that other substance. Therefore, an oxidising agent must gain electrons.

Oxidation happens when an atom loses one or more electrons during a chemical reaction, meaning that its oxidation number increases. This is because the atom loses the negative charge of the electron, which is similar to gaining a positive charge, increasing the oxidation number.

Which clade is composed of eukaryotes which are multicellular and heterotrophs?
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

Animal clade

Explanation:

<em>A clade is used to refer to all members of group of organisms that share the same ancestor.</em>

Animals are the only group of living organisms that are eukaryotic, multicellular as well as heterotrophic in nature.

They are eukaryotic because their cells have nucleus and membrane-bound organelles like mitochondrion and chloroplast.

They are multicellular because their bodies are made up of more than one cells. The simplest animal (sponge) is made up of several cells while the most complex animal (human) is made up of millions of cells.

Animals are heterotrophs because they lack the capacity to manufacture their own food. They depend on external source for their food. Particular, animals ingest their foods, digest it internally and egest undigested food/waste materials.

Salmon live in both fresh water and salt water during their lives. they are born in fresh water nut migrate out to marine waters
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

1. adaption

Explanation:

Salmon have special adaptation behavior that allows them to live in both freshwater and saline water during their lives.

<u>Salmons are born in freshwater where they spend few months and then move to saline water. For laying eggs, they again move to freshwater because eggs are unable to survive in saline water due to a process known as osmoregulation.</u>

Moving from freshwater to ocean water, salmon adapt according to the environment for their survival.

Hence, the correct answer is "1. adaption"
