Answer:
An ionic bond can be formed after two or more atoms loss or gain electrons to form an ion. Ionic bonds occur between metals, losing electrons, and nonmetals, gaining electrons. Ions with opposite charges will attract one another creating an ionic bond
Answer:
Other factors could affect the reason the seed didn't germinate because under suitable conditions depending on the variety it should germinate within 5 to 10 days from planting. However, the most likely reason it didn't germinate must be the Temperature.
Explanation:
From the question above, the farmer lives in Minnesota and she planted between March and May, meaning the temperature was way cold which is not suitable for tomato. One other valuable point was she planting outdoor which could also affect the performance of the tomato seedlings. Planting in early spring doesn't necessarily mean bad as some seeds might thrive under conditions explained above. For tomato, depending on temperature because too high temperatures could also affect the viability of the seeds. In Minnesota in early spring, it would have been better if she planted indoors to raise the temperature before transplanting as a balanced night temperature is also important for the seed viability.
Some other factors to be considered for seeds to germinate:
1. Water
2. Type of the soil
3. Seed depth in the soil
4. Nature of seed coat
5. Oxygen
6. Light
Answer:
D. Sterility Locus
Explanation:
Angiosperms have several mechanisms to prevent self-pollination due to the advantage of cross-pollination. One of such mechanisms is self-incompatibility genes present on the sterility locus.
These genes determine the germination of the pollen on the stigma. If both the pollen and stigma carry the same allele of the gene present at the sterility locus, the germination of pollen is prevented.
The sterility locus has multiple alleles and the presence of the same alleles at the same locus in both pollen and stigma prevents the pollen germination.
For example, pollen from S1S2 individuals can not germinate on the stigma with the S1S3 genotype. Here, the pollen does not obtain water as required for germination from the stigma and are unable to germinate.
An example of homeostasis would be sweating when the temperature is hot.
