Answer: The correct answer is Option A.

Explanation:

Electronegativity is defined as the tendency of an atom to attract the shared pair of electrons towards itself whenever a bond is formed.

This property increases as we move from left to right across a period because the number of charge on the nucleus gets increased and electrons are attracted more towards the nucleus.

This property decreases as we move from top to bottom in a group because the electrons get add up in the new shells which make them further away from the nucleus.

Thus, the correct answer is Option A.

Answer:

The Photosynthesis process

Explanation:

Plants, algae, and some other organisms can transform the sunlight energy into chemical energy. The photosynthesis process occur thanks to the chloroplasts. The chloroplast is an organelle found in all green plants. Inside of the chloroplast you can find the thylakoids which are arranged in stacks named grana, they have membranes with chloropyll a photosynthetic pigment, also you can find the photosystems, they are functional and structural units of protein complexes. The thylakoids capture the light and allow the reactions to transform CO2. The set of reactions that occurs in the chloroplasts are known as the Calvin cycle.

The general equation of photosynthesis is:

$6 CO_{2} + 6 H_{2} O + Energy -> C_{6} H_{12} 12O_{6} + 6 O_{2}$

6 CO2 + 6 H2O + Energy -> C6H12O6 + 6 O2

Carbon Dioxide + water + Light -> Glucose (sugar) + Oxygen

After, this glucose is transformed into pyruvate, and it allowed the release of denosine triphosphate (ATP) by cellular respiration. The ATP is an organic chemical that is requires for the cell to perform any process (any kind or work).

zzz [600]

When an organism is buried quickly there is less decay and better the chance for it to be persevere. The hard parts of the organism such as bones, shells, and teeth have a better chance of becoming fossils that softer parts of the organism. HARD BONES.
