In an ionic compound, the attraction between actions and _________ hold the compound together

Biology
1 answer:
Nady [450]3 years ago
3 0
Answer: 
            The correct option in blank is anion.

Explanation:
                  Ionic compound is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to another atom. When an electropositve atom lose an electron it form cation, whereas as anion is formed when an atom gain an electron. These actions and anions then attract each other and form an ionic compound.
I hope it will help you.

Example:
              The formation of NaCl is best example of ionic compound. Na has one electron in its outer most shell which can easily be removed to form Na+, while Cl has seven electron in its outer most shell so it can easily gain an electron lost by Na to form Cl-. Then these ions attract each other and form NaCl as shown in the figure.

Advocard [28]

A translocation that moves a gene from an area of euchromatin to heterochromatin would typically cause a(n) reduction in the expression of the gene.

<h3>What is euchromatin?</h3>
  • A kind of chromatin that is sparsely packed, enriched in genes, and frequently engaged in transcription is called euchromatin.
  • Contrasting with heterochromatin, which is compact and less accessible for transcription, is euchromatin.
  • The human genome has 92% euchromatic DNA.
<h3>What is heterochromatin?</h3>
  • Heterochromatin, often known as condensed DNA or densely packed DNA, has many different types.
  • Between constitutive heterochromatin and facultative heterochromatin, these variations fall on a spectrum. Both contribute to how genes are expressed.
  • Eukaryotic genomes contain heterochromatin, which serves a variety of purposes including regulating gene expression and preventing DNA replication and repair.
