Answer: the best statement is 1 (Vitamin B12 (cobolamin) is missing from the vegan diet and very low in the lactovegetarian diet.)
Explanation:
Vitamin B12( cobalamin) is a water soluble vitamin that is essential in the formation of red blood cells. It also serves as a coenzyme in the metabolic reaction of the body. Such reaction includes:
- the remethylation of methionine from homocysteine which is catalyzed by methionine synthase and requires methylcobalamin.
The deficiency of vitamin B12 can lead to the following:
- elevated homocysteine ,
- an increase in methylmalonate
This is due to deficiencies in methionine synthase and methylmalonic acid mutase, respectively in individuals on vegan diet for several years.
Vegans are vegetarians that don't include diary or animal products in their meals. This predisposes them to lack of Vitamin B12. Dairy products provide some vitamin B12 in the lactovegetarian diet. Therefore statement 1 is the correct answer, thanks.
5 electrons
Boron atomic number 5 has five electrons in its ground state.
Commonly Boron will lose 3 electrons leaving 2 electrons in its most common ionic form.
Explanation:
The atomic number gives the number of protons. Protons which have a positive charge are balanced by an equal number of electrons in a neutral atom.
Boron number 5 has five protons and therefore as a neutral atom also has five electrons.
Boron has an electron configuration of
1s22s22p1
The most stable electron configuration for Boron is
1s2
+ 3 charges. By losing three electrons Boron can achieve the stable electron structure of Helium

Answer:
a, b, c, d
Explanation:
Rutherford’ atomic model is based on the gold foil experiment. In this experiment, beam of alpha rays was bombarded on thin gold foil. He observed that:
Most of the alpha particles passed through thin foil without any deflection.
Few alpha particles deflected by an angle of 90o.
Based on observation, Rutherford concluded that majority of the space inside the atom is empty.
He explained defection of few alpha particles by assuming that most of the mass is concentrated at the nucleus and positively charged.
Therefore, among given, the correct statements are:
The atom contains a positively charged nucleus.
Positive charge is condensed in one location within the atom.
The majority of the space inside the atom is empty space
The mass of an atom is concentrated at the nucleus
Therefore, the correct options are:
a, b, c, d
Answer:
chemical reactions which proceed with the release of heat energy are called exothermic reactions
Answer: False
Explanation: adding heat to matter results in thermal energy.
