Biology

<em>CORRECT STATEMENTS
> Water forms hydrogen bonds with other polar molecules. </em>
<em>> Water is a polar molecule. </em>
<em>> Water dissolves more ionic compounds.</em> 

<em />Water is a polar molecule because of its uneven distribution of electron density. It is made up of two hydrogen atoms and one positive atom.
Since water is a polar molecule, it forms hydrogen bonds with other polar molecules. Though these bonds are relatively weak, however, there are so many of them present in water. 
Water also dissolves most ionic compounds due to the fact that water is a universal solvent. When these compounds are added to water, there will be an interaction between the individual ions and the polar regions of the water molecules and disrupts the ionic bonds. 

<em>INCORRECT </em>
> Liquid water is less dense than water vapor. - Liquid water has a higher density than water vapor. The fact that water vapor rises indicates that it is less dense than water.

>Water dissolves more hydrophobic substances. - Hydrophobic substances do not dissolve easily in water. It is termed as 'hydrophobic" because it means water-fearing.

Which scenario is a competitive network?
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

Scenario I, Scenario II, and Scenario III are examples of competitive networks.

Explanation:

There are different examples of nets as interactions between species. Trophic net is a very common example of these interactions. Another one is the competitive network.

The competitive network refers to the competition for the same resource between different species in a community or ecosystem. When a resource is useful for two or more species, they compete to gain it.

The competitive network can be represented as arrows that indicate which is the dominant species over the other. This representation must be done with a<u> minimum of two species interacting</u> and indicating through the direction of the arrow, which species wins the competition.

There is a competitive hierarchy when there are more than two species, for example, species A, B, and C. Species A dominates over the other two, and species B dominates over species C. In these cases, the representation would be A --> B --> C. This reflects a transitive competitive network. Species A displaces species B and C, and species B displaces species C. The only species that can persist is A. This example can be extended to <u>any number of species</u>, which suggests that a hierarchy network does not promote biologic diversity.

The nucleoid region of a prokaryotic cell
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

A. contains the cell's DNA

Explanation:

Prokaryotic cells such as the bacterial cells and the cells of archaeans do not have a membrane-bound nucleus. Their genetic material DNA is present in the cytoplasm only. However, their genetic material is concentrated in a specific region inside their cells. This is called a nucleoid. Nucleoid does not have any surrounding membrane. It represents the nuclear area where the DNA of the prokaryotic cells is present.
