6 0

Answer:

Alpha particles are energetic (fast) helium nuclei, beta particles are smaller and have half the charge, being energetic electrons (or positrons) only the gamma particles are photons, i.e., they are not massive particles at all, they are a form of electromagnetic radiation, a form more energetic than X-rays

olya-2409 [2.1K]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option A which is hybridization occurs in plants more often than in animals.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Hybridization means mixing of different things.
  • In the context of biology, hybridization means the mixing of genetic material of the two dissimilar species. The resulting offspring is known as the hybrid.
  • In the case of animals, they are usually infertile as a mule, a hybrid of donkey and horse.
  • Hybridization always involves interspecies mating. And sometimes the natural selection is in favor of hybridization.
  • In plants, it is very common which is also known as crossbreeding and different types of plants and fruits are produced by this method.
  • Hence the correct option is A.

1.2 What type of bonding occurs when hydrogen form a diatomic molecule?​
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

I think it is covalent bonding...

Explanation:

The bonding is covalent in homonuclear diatomic molecules. Each atom in the molecule has the same electronegativity, which means electrons are shared equally between the two. The electronegativity of the atoms in heteronuclear diatomic molecules varies, and these molecules have polar covalent bonds. A dipole is formed when a molecule interacts with another molecule. (i think it's covalent bonding but i might be wrong)

hope this helps...

Does potassium or lithium have the smaller atomic radius? Support your answer using atomic structure (ex: energy levels, nuclear
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

Atomic radii increase in size as you progress down the columns of the periodic table. This is because as you add more electrons, and fill more electron shells, the total radius across the atom increases.
