Acetylene (C2H2) has a triple bond between the two carbons. So 3 pairs of electrons. Biomed is talking about ethylene (C2H4).

Explanation:

Acetylene (systematic name: ethyne) is the synthetic compound with the formula C2H2. It is a hydrocarbon and the simplest alkyne. This colorless gas is widely utilized as a fuel and a chemical structure block. It is uncertain in its pure form and thus is usually marketed as a solution

What is the relationship between light intensity and gas production?
balandron [24]

Answer:

As light intensity increases (distance between lamp and plant decreases) the volume of oxygen (or the rate of bubble production) increases. This indicates that the rate of photosynthesis increases with light intensity. However, at sufficiently high levels of light intensity, the rate oxygen evolution remains constant.

Answer:

Gene therapy

Explanation:

Gene therapy can be defined as the methodologies used to modify/restore the expression of target genes and thus cure and treat genetic disorders. Gene therapy approaches consist of delivering specific nucleic acids (either RNA or DNA) in the cells of the individual to be treated. Some of the most important gene therapy approaches include the use of small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) in order to block target gene expression, adenovirus vectors to insert genes into host cells, the use of the CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing system to insert specific sequences by the mechanism of homologous recombination, etc.
