Answer:

The answer to your question is letter E. Nitrogen is much more electronegative than hydrogen.

Explanation:

Talking about bonding, we must know that there are two main types of bonds.

- Ionic bonds: these bonds are formed when we combine metal and a nonmetal and the electronegativity between these elements is higher than 1.7.

- Covalent bonds are formed when two nonmetals are combined. There are two kinds of covalent bonds:

a) Nonpolar, the electronegativity between the nonmetals is between 0 and 0.5.

b) Polar, the electronegativity between the nonmetals is between 0.5 and 1.7.

In this problem, the difference of electronegativity between nitrogen (3.04) and hydrogen (2.2) is 0.84, then this molecule has a polar bond.

iragen [17]

Answer:

ice age/ Quaternary glaciation

Explanation:

Ice ages have occurred in the earth history and do occur more or less regularly in a cycle. It is believed that ice ages are as a result of small changes in the earth's orbit and also dependent on the solar cycles. The temperatures on the earth reduce causing the ice sheets in the poles to extend to the subtropics.

Two differences between hormones and the nervous system

leva [86]

Answer:

Hormones can be proteins, lipids or cholesterol-based molecules. Neurotransmitters are protein. The main difference between hormones and neurotransmitters is that Hormones are produced in the endocrine glands and released into the bloodstream where they find their movement targets at a distance from their origin. In contrast, Neurotransmitters are released into the synaptic space by a terminal of an excited presynaptic nerve cell and transmit a nerve signal to the neighboring postsynaptic nerve cell.

erica [24]

<span>The answer is C.glycolysis ® Krebs cycle ® electron transport chain. There are 3 stages of cellular respiration: 1. glycolysis when glucose is broken down to pyruvate in the cytoplasm; 2. Krebs cycle when Acetyl CoA and oxaloacetate form a 6 C-atoms compound; 3. Electron transport chain when hydrogen molecules removed through previous stages are pumped to the chain and energy is produced.</span>
