Anions are negatively charged particles. The water molecule is a polar molecule, that means that, it is partly positive and partly negative. The oxygen atoms in the water molecules are more electronegative more than the hydrogen atoms and they draw the shared electron nearer to themselves than the hydrogen atoms; this make them to be slightly negatively charged while the hydrogen atom is slightly positively charged.
Therefore in solution, the anions would be attracted toward the hydrogen atom that is slightly positive while the cations will be attracted to oxygen atom that is slightly negative.

VashaNatasha [74]
I would choose C.
A isn't the best of option because it does not directly mention fresh vs. salt water.
B does not make sense because it is discussing introduced species not native ones.
And D literally just has no relevance.

I would go with C because it is literally drawing attention to introduced species because of dumping ballast waters.

About how many unique proteins are in humans?
dexar [7]

Answer:

Between 80,000 and 400,000 proteins.

Explanation:

In humans, up to ten different proteins can be traced to a single gene. Proteome: It is now estimated that the human body contains between 80,000 and 400,000 proteins. However, they aren't all produced by all the body's cells at any given time. Cells have different proteomes depending on their cell type.

Match each step of the scientific method with the order it usually occurs in. 1. 1st Step data collection 2. 2nd Step communicat
AysviL [449]

Answer:

1st Step: Observation

2nd Step: Questioning

3rd Step: Data Collection

4th Step: Data analysis

5th Step: Communication

In the scientific method, the first step is always to make an observation. You can observe anything in your environment, or a phenomena, or behavior.

The next step would be to question. You form a question to find a possible explanation as to why what you had observed occurred. This is also when you make a hypothesis. An educated guess or a proposal that could explain the event.

After you make a hypothesis, you start an experiment where you will collect data. The data you collect would then be analyzed (4th step). From there you build your conclusion to determine whether your hypothesis holds true.

The last step would be communication. You will communicate the results of your method. This allows people to review your data and process, which may be supported or invalidated. Communication is critical in the scientific world because your results could be the basis for further investigation.

The generation of a knock-out organism generally requires all the following EXCEPT ________. The generation of a knock-out organ
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

knowledge of the sequence product

Explanation:

A gene knockout is a technique used in molecular genetics to deactivate target genes in an organism in order to study their functions by reverse genetics (i.e., gene loss). Knockouts are generated by different methods including, for example, homologous recombination or site-specific nucleases (zinc-fingers, TALENS, CRISPR/Cas9). These techniques require to know a priori the sequence of each gene to be knocked out in order to target desired mutations. In the last years, the CRISPR/Cas9 tool has gained attention to knockout genes of interest because it is a genome editing system that can be easily used for deletion or insertion of bases.
