Rosalind Franklin and Maurice Wilkins conducted experiments using X-ray crystallography to study the structure of the DNA. Their experiments produced the famous photo 51, the first evidence on the structure of the DNA. Their work showed that DNA is double-stranded and forming a helix. They also showed that the nitrogenous bases are on the inside of the strands and that the phosphates are on the outside. Watson and Crick used these observations to develop their model on the molecular structure of the DNA.

The reactivity of an atom arises from
saw5 [17]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

For metals, the further away the valence electrons are from the nucleus, the higher the reactivity of the elements. Unlike halogens that are more reactive if the valence orbital shells are closer to the nucleus. This is due to ionization energies – which is the minimum energy required to discharge an electron from its orbit.

For metals this should be lower because they need to lose electrons to attain a stable electron configuration. For halogens it should be high because they don't need to lose electrons, but rather gain, in order to attain stable electron configuration.

Electrons in their orbital shells need to occur in pairs (with opposite quantum states) to be in stable configuration and as long as an atom has orbitals with single electrons, the atoms will be reactive as opposed to when its orbitals are ‘full’.

The exodus of medical professionals from africa to europe is an example of brain drain as it has the potential to __________.
Marat540 [252]

<span>Out of the following given choices;</span>

<span>A)   </span>spur economic development in Africa

B) impede economic development in Africa

C) impede economic development in Europe

D) spur economic growth for those medical professionals

<span>The answer is B. Brain drain means a country is losing its professionals to the external market rather than working in the local market due to unfavorable local conditions. The country loses because it has few medical professionals to treat its people hence it carries a higher burden of diseased people.  Additionally, to cater to this gap, it has to import these medical services which is more expensive than keeping local talent. </span>
