Answer is B) One swims freely and the other often lives attached to a hard surface.

Nektons are marine aquatic actively-swimming organisms. Nektons propel in the water column freely either by swimming or other by means. Examples include vertebrates such as fish, whales, turtles, sharks and invertebrates include squads.

Benthos are the animals which are found at the bottom of the seafloor. These animals can be free moving forms near the ocean bed or attached to the seafloor. Unlike the nektons, benthos cannot swim in water. Benthos mainly includes echinoderms, crustaceans, molluscs, poriferans and annelids.

How does chlorine bond with sodium?
timurjin [86]

Both the sodium and the chlorine atoms need to obtain a stable electron configuration, thus, a complete outer shell of eight electrons.


Sodiums electron design is 2,8,1 and chlorines electron setup is 2,8,7. So all together for the two molecules of the two components to get a total external shell of eight electrons, sodium will give one electron to chlorine, and the chlorine particle will acknowledge the gave electron when responded with each other.

This outcomes in the sodium particle having an electron arrangement of 2,8 so is currently total. The chloride particle currently has an electron configuration of 2,8,8.

Since the molecules have moved toward becoming particles to end up stable, the Na+ and the Cl-particles draw in one another because of their contrary charges, which results in an ionic bond.


This is the reason sodium and chlorine cling to each other when responded.
