Chemistry

mestny [16]4 years ago

Hello! Your answer would be a gain of electrons and a decrease in positive charge.

Contrary to how it sounds, reduction is actually a gain of electrons. It is part of a set of reactions known as a redox reaction, reduction being a gain of electrons and oxidation being a loss.

With the gain of electrons, the element would become more negative as electrons bring with them a negative charge. Therefore, this would decrease the positive charge.

Hope this helped!

The difference between cow stomach and human stomach​
andreyandreev [35.5K]

The primary distinction between the digestive systems of cows and humans is that the former uses a foregut fermenter while the latter uses a straightforward monogastric digestion. The types of teeth, mouths, stomachs, guts, and digestive enzymes released by the gut also vary between the two digestive systems. Cows and humans have different digestive systems because they have evolved two different sorts of dietary patterns based on their capacities. The primary distinctions between the digestive systems of cows and humans are in the types of teeth, mouths, stomachs, and intestines, as well as the enzymes released.
