Answer: Protons

Explanation: Every atom is defined by its protons every element. So if it has 1 proton its hydrogen no matter what. If it has 2 protons its helium no matter what and so on. So if you know the number of protons you know the element.

The atomic number tells you the number of protons that are in the core of a particular element.

In wet mount preparations, is it possible to see eukaryotic flagella? Bacterial flagella? Why or why not?
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Answer is Yes for eukaryotic flagella and , no for bacterial flagella.

Explanation:

Note that, a flagellum is a slender appendage structure  just like a thread, enabling some protozoa, spermatozoa among others to move or swim from a point to another.

The bacterial flagella is simple and small, and made up of protein, while the eukaryotic flagella are large and somewhat complex, and composed of tublin.

In this case, the eukaryotic flagella will be seen simply because they are larger, and extended out from the surface of the cell.

Explain how covalent bonds and hydrogen bonds hold together a strand of DNA
Lilit [14]

Answer:

Covalent bonds appear inside every linear chain and connect bases, sugars, and phosphate groups.

Hydrogen bonds appear between two strands and involve the base from one strand with the base from another strand in the complementary pairing.

Explanation:

A covalent bond is a chemical bond formed by joining electrons of two non-metal atoms into one or more common pairs.

A hydrogen bond (X-bond) is a type of weak chemical bond based on electrostatic attraction between a hydrogen atom and a nucleophilic atom that contains free electron pairs.
