Answer:    A. Negative, positive

Explanation:  The water formula is known as H₂O, where according to the formula, two hydrogen atoms are bonded to one oxygen atom. The oxygen charge is -2, because it belongs to the group of atoms with valence number six. This means that oxygen has six valence electrons and it needs two more electrons to have eight and become neutral. Therefore, it has a negative charge of -2, and in the water molecule binds two hydrogen atoms, each with a charge of +1. Thus, by binding two positive hydrogen atoms, the total water molecule is stable.

Why does the reporter have a tube up his nose? why does the reporter have a tube up his nose? to replace the salts and other ion
Helga [31]
The correct answer is to accurately measure core temperature.
The tube seen entering the reporter's nose is a thermistor which is used to measure the core temperature of the body with very high levels of accuracy. The tube reaches the esophagus, which is one of the most preferred locations for measuring the core temperature.
The core body temperature is the operating temperature of the human body and it refers to the temperature of the deeper structures of the body instead of the peripheral tissues. 
The esophagus is close to the left ventricle of the heart, it has a deep body location and a quick response to any changes in the body temperature.
