Distinguish ionic and covalent bonds and how they differ

1 answer:

5 0

Ionic bonds are referred to two elements/molecules that form when one is classified as metal and another is classified as non-metal. Covalent bonds are two non-metal elements that bind together. They differ in several ways. Ionic bonds have a better force of attraction due to the metal element, whereas covalent bonds are formed using the Van de Waals force (which makes it weaker). Ionic bond also has higher melting and boiling point because of its force of attraction as compared to the covalent bond. Similarly, ionic bonds react to electricity where covalent does not.

How does the enzyme telomerase meet the challenge of replicating the ends of linear chromosomes?

maxonik [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is C) It catalyzes the lengthening of telomeres, compensating for the shortening that could occur during replication without telomerase activity.

Explanation:

While replicating, the ends of the chromosomes always lose a part of the ends, therefore, the telomerase catalyzes this growing process, somehow compensating the information that will be lost.
