Answer:

Option (A).

Explanation:

Ionic bond may be defined as the type of chemical bond that can be formed by the transfer of electrons from the electropositive element to the electronegative element. Ionic bond is also known as electrostatic bond.

Phosphorus has an atomic number 15. It requires three more electrons to complete its orbit. Phosphorus can accept three electrons and attains negative charge. The phosphorus can form ionic bond by accepting three electron from the other atom.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).

Which of the following is NOT a function of Sertoli cells?
zalisa [80]

Answer:

The correct answer is option - d. Production of primary spermatocytes.

Explanation:

The accessory cells or supporting cells present within the seminiferous tubules of reproductive system termed as the Sertoli cells. They play various roles in the body and reproductive system.

Sertoli cells make blood-testis barrier in adjacent Sertoli cells in the seminiferous tubules. These cells secrete different types of enzymes and hormones such as inhibin which are also secreted by ovary and placenta in females. Sertoli cells produce seminiferous tubular fluid to provide nutrition to the sperm. Apoptotic germ cells are timely eliminated by these cells.

Thus, the correct answer is option D. Production of primary spermatocytes.
