Why does the oxygen atom in a water molicule have a negative charge

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

In the covalent bond between oxygen and hydrogen, the oxygen atom attracts electrons a bit more strongly than the hydrogen atoms. The unequal sharing of electrons gives the water molecule a slight negative charge near its oxygen atom and a slight positive charge near its hydrogen atoms.

Answer:

A nerve impulse from one neuron affects the activity of a neighboring neuron at a point of interaction called the: SYNAPSE

Explanation:

A NEURON(or nerve cell) has 3 parts:

1. The dendrites(multiple)

2. The axon

3. The cell body

A SYNAPSE is an area where the dendrites of one neuron communicates with the axon of another neuron.

At the synapse, nerve impulses are transmitted from one neuron to the other. This is possible through substances called NEUROTRANSMITTERS. There is no direct contact between the axon of one neuron and dendrites of another neuron.
