Covalent bonds are formed when two atoms are able to <em>share</em> electrons.

Iroinic bonds are form when two atoms are <em> </em> electrons from each other to complete the bond. This results in a pair of ions.


<u>Covalent bonds:</u>

  • Have a definite shape.
  • Have a low melting point.
  • At room temperature they are in a liquid or gas.
  • They occur between two non-metals.

<u>Ionic bonds:</u>

  • Have no definite shape.
  • Have a high melting point.
  • At room temperature they are solid.
  • They occur between a metal and a nonmetal.

Which temperature generated the greatest oxygen production?
Dovator [93]

Answer:

Option A, 30 C

Explanation:

Plants are able to produce oxygen through the process of photosynthesis and photosynthesis is well carried in the presence of light at a warm temperature of 28 degree Celsius. The rate of photosynthesis falls if the temperature rises above 28 degree Celsius and with falling rate of  photosynthesis, rate of oxygen production also falls.

The rate of photosynthesis and hence the oxygen produces also falls when the temperature falls below 28 degree celsius.

Since, the nearest temperature range is 30 degree celsius thus  option A is correct

Answer:

1. Supplying

2. Taking

Explanation:

Food chain is a linear relationship between organisms that depicts the flow of energy from one organism to another. In a food chain, organisms are arranged in trophic levels where arrows pointing to the right direction (➡) are used to show that the organim the arrow is pointing to eats the organism behind it.

Hence, according to this question, arrows in a food chain point from the organism SUPPLYING the energy to the organism TAKING the energy.
