Answer:

silicon dioxide is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Diatoms are the unicellular algae, found in waterways, soil, and ocean.

diatoms cell walls are made up of silica dioxide which is called frustule because the cell wall is composed of silicon dioxide it makes the cell wall diatoms transparent, which helps them to produce more foods.

As the diatoms cell wall is composed of silica it is used as a silica source, to treat constipation and cholesterol level and also to improve the health by removing the dead cells.

9. What is always true of a binary compound? It has a double bond. It has two elements. It has covalent bonds. It has two atoms.
juin [17]

Answer

Correct answer is :It has two elements

Explanation

A binary compound is a compound that is made up of two of the elements in the periodic table. Some examples of binary compounds are NaCl and N_2O. This means that a binary compound can have more than 2 atoms as in the case of hydrogen oxide. Some binary compounds are ionic as in the case of sodium chloride.This shows that they do not necessarily have to have covalent bonds. This also rules out the possibility that they may always have double bonds as ionic compounds are bound together by ionic bonds. The only thing that will always be true of binary compounds is that they will always have 2 elements.

A diagram shows a potato producing new tubers. Buds on the parent plant grow into stems that grow downwards called stolons. The
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

Evidence that shows that the illustration is an asexual method of reproduction:

1. New tubers were produced without any signs of flowering or fertilization

2. Parent plant was produced from a vegetative part ( a tuber).

All the new tubers would be genetically identical because they were produced without fertilization. They all developed from the division of some of the vegetative cells (mitosis) of the parent plant. Hence, they are not only genetically identical with themselves but also with the  old tuber that produced the parent plant.
