Answer: Ionic Bond

Explanation:

An ionic bond exists between two dissimilar ions. Cation is positively charged and anion is negatively charged.

Cation lacks electrons i.e. an atom which has more number or protons than electrons forms a cation.

Anion has excess of electrons i.e.when an atom has more electrons than protons.

A charged specie is unstable. It tends to lose or gain electron in order to get neutral and become stable. An ionic bond is formed due to transfer of electron from anion to cation. K⁺ is positively charged -it is a cation. It lacks one electron. I- has one extra electron - it is anion. when K⁺ and I⁻ bond, I⁻ loses its electron to K⁺ and ionic bond is created.

K⁺ + I⁻ → KI

What is blood vessel in humans body?​
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

Blood vessel, a vessel in the human or animal body in which blood circulates. The vessels that carry blood away from the heart are called arteries, and their very small branches are arterioles. Very small branches that collect the blood from the various organs and parts are called venules, and they unite to form veins, which return the blood to the heart. Capillaries are minute thin-walled vessels that connect the arterioles and venules; it is through the capillaries that nutrients and wastes are exchanged between the blood and body tissues.

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Fossil is the name that is used for the trace or remains of an organism that lived long ago, most commonly preserved in sedimentary rock.

Explanation:

Fossils are the remaining parts of the organism's body which lives in ancient times and now they are extinct. Extinct means they are no longer the part of our earth or there is no specie of their kind. Fossil is only be found when the dead bodies of animals buried quickly so the chances of their complete decomposition is less and people will get it during digging after long time.
