A water molecule consists of two atoms of hydrogen linked by covalent bonds to the same atom of oxygen. Atoms of oxygen are electronegative and attract the shared electrons in their covalent bonds.
Process by which the internal structure of a mineral is altered by the addition or removal of elements. Change in phase (mineral type) and composition are due to the action of chemical agents. Chemical weathering is dependent on available surface for reaction temperature and presence of chemically active fluids.
ATP is broken down into ADP to quickly provide energy. Adding a phosphate group to ADP forms ATP and energy.
Prokaryotic cells are cells that can function independently. They consist of everything needed for that cell to nourish itself and to grow and reproduce.
