Answer:
1. Magnesium and oxygen atoms bond to form an ionic compound; this is evident because one forms a cation and the other an anion. When an ionic compound is formed, one atom "steals" an electron (or electrons) from another. In this case, an oxygen atom (which is pretty electronegative by the way) "steals" 2 electrons from a magnesium atom. The resulting oxygen anion and magnesium cation attract one another to form a bond (more specifically, an ionic one).
2. The oxygen atom needed two sodium atoms to bond because it needs two additional electrons to achieve a stable octet of electrons. 1 sodium atom provides 1 additional electron after it is "stolen" by oxygen, so 2 sodium atoms are needed in total to form the bond.
3. The magnesium atom needed two fluorine atoms to bond because it needs to lose two electrons to achieve a stable configuration/octet of electrons. 1 fluorine atom "steals" one electron, so 2 are needed in total.
Happy Holidays!
Answer
Cells use the hydrolysis of adenosine triphosphate, abbreviated as ATP, as a source of energy. Symbolically, this reaction can be written as
where ADP represents adenosine diphosphate. For this reaction, a. Calculate at b. If all the free energy from the metabolism of glucose

Answer:
Proportion of the F2 male with red eyes and forked bristle will be 1/4
Explanation:
forked bristles are caused by an allele (Xf) that is X linked and recessive to an allele for normal bristles (X+).
Brown eyes are caused by an allele (b) that is autosomal and recessive to an allele for red eyes (b+)
A female fly that is homozygous for normal bristles and red eyes mates with a male fly that has forked bristles and brown eyes
X+X+b+b+ x Xfbb
the F1 gives 1/2X+Xf 1/2b+b
1/2X+Y 1/2b+b
intercross of F1
Proportion of the F2 male with red eyes and forked bristle will be
forked bristle= Xfy = 1/2 and for red eyes 2/4= 1/2 = 1/2x1/2 =1/4
