It is covalent bonding. The electrons are shared between the phosphorus and the chlorines.

covalent bonding is when electrons are shared between two elements.

molecular polarity is a little bit complicated, but I will try to explain ;)
PCl3 is an alternation on tetrahedral molecules.
It means that P has one lone pair of electrons. This pair of electrons are only attracted to the P nuclei and thus a greater freedom of motion.
This means that their orbital is bigger and this pushes the 3 Cl atoms closer together.
The angle between each Cl now is 107 and the angle between Cls and P is greater than 107.
Now, due to this shape, and also electronegativity (Cl is more electronegative than P meaning that it tends to hog the electrons they share closer to itself), PCl3 is polar. Electrons that are shared tend to flow closer towards the Cl than the P side.
Therefore, on the Cl side of the molecule it's, more negative. On the P side, it's more positive.

How are the three lines of defense the same? They all involve producing fever. They all involve fighting pathogens. They all inv
raketka [301]

Answer:

THEY ALL INVOLVE FIGHTING PATHOGENS

Explanation:

The immune system which is involved in defending the body against infections are diseases involves three lines of defense which are all involved in fighting against pathogens. Pathogens are invaders which when introduced into the body causes harm and therefore makes us sick. The body's first line of defense includes the physical barriers such as the skin, mucous membrane; chemical barriers such as tears, saliva, gastric acid in the stomach. These helps to keep the pathogens from entering the delicate parts of the body and once the pathogens find their way out of the reach of the first line of defense, the second line of defense is initiated. This includes inflammatory effects, swelling, redness, phagocytosis by neutrophils and macrophages. The third line of defense is the actions of lymphocytes which acts on invading microbes. The lymphocytes are of two types; the B and T cells. B cells produces antibodies which fight the antigens and T cells attack the infected cells of the body. There is also the memory cells which keeps information about the invading microbes for future attacks. This enables the body to respond swiftly when next the same type of pathogens attack.
