ionic bonding.
Ionic bonding<span> is a type of </span>chemical bond<span> that involves the </span>electrostatic attraction<span> between oppositely charged </span>ions<span>, and is the primary interaction occurring in </span>ionic compounds<span>. The ions are atoms that have gained one or more </span>electrons<span> (known as </span>anions<span>, which are negatively charged) and atoms that have lost one or more electrons (known as </span>cations<span>, which are positively charged). This transfer of electrons is known as </span>electrovalence<span> in contrast to </span>covalence<span>. In the simplest case, the cation is a </span>metal<span> atom and the anion is a </span>nonmetal<span> atom, but these ions can be of a more complex nature, e.g. molecular ions like NH</span>4+<span> or SO</span>42−<span>. In simpler words, an ionic bond is the transfer of electrons from a </span>metal<span> to a </span>non-metal<span> in order to obtain a full valence shell for both atoms.</span>

Can someone please explain why food that has been kept at room temperature for a few hours is more likely to cause food poisonin
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

Because food kept at room temperature is somewhat exposed to air, and sometimes, the air can contain dangerous chemicals that were perhaps accidentally released, whereas food in the refrigerator doesn't apply to that problem.

A gene exists in two alleles, which we will call B and b. The gene is 1123 bp in length, and the B and b alleles exhibit single
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

The below options will complete the question

Select one:

a. Gap repair synthesis

b. Mismatch repair

c. Direct repair

d. Nucleotide excision repair

Our answer is surely A.

a. Gap repair synthesis

Explanation:

Alleles of gene B differ by 6 bps and are seeming close to each other among the 1123 bp within the particular gene, favouring the gap repair synthesis.

In the gap repair synthesis, a double stranded break is formed at a homologous chromosome with a small part of the gene or the 6 bps of the recessive allele

being digested away.

Strand invasion and a D-loop formation is followed by the new region being occupied by the dominant B allele to yielding dominant B allele in both chromosomes.

The gap repair synthesis allows the 6bps to be converted to the dominant B from the recessive b when in proximity/being close together.

How do you know if something is an enzyme based on its spelling
mr_godi [17]

Answer and Explanation:

Enzymes are organic catalysts which are protein in nature. There are two types of naming enzymes:

<h3>Trivial naming</h3>

This method involves giving enzymes names based on the names of the persons who discovered them. The names of such enzymes end with the suffix-in, for example, pepsin, trypsin. Some of these names have been retained to date.

Enzyme Nomenclature by Enzyme Commission

This is the modern method of naming enzymes. The suffix-ase is added to the substrate or the reaction which the enzymes catalyses. Every enzyme code consists of the letters "EC" followed by the enzyme. For example

EC 1 oxidoreductases- oxidoreduction reactions

EC 2 transferases- transfer of a functional group

EC 3 hydrolases- catalyse hydrolytic cleaving

EC 4 lyases - adding groups to double bonds. e.g., C-C,C-O

EC 5 isomerases - catalyse structural changes in a molecule

EC 6 ligases - joining of two molecules
