Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

Octet rule applies to element and it says that in order to achieve noble gas configuration, the outermost shell (valence shell) must have eight electron.

Given

Number of electrons in fluorine in its outermost shell 7\\

Number of electrons to fulfill the octet rule 8\\

Deficiency of electron = Number of electrons to fulfill the octet rule -Number of electrons in fluorine in its outermost shell

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get

Deficiency of electron = 8 -7 \\= 1\\

Hence, option A is correct.

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

Evidence that shows that the illustration is an asexual method of reproduction:

1. New tubers were produced without any signs of flowering or fertilization

2. Parent plant was produced from a vegetative part ( a tuber).

All the new tubers would be genetically identical because they were produced without fertilization. They all developed from the division of some of the vegetative cells (mitosis) of the parent plant. Hence, they are not only genetically identical with themselves but also with the  old tuber that produced the parent plant.
