Dr. Haxton says the O-O bond is polar and the C-C bond is nonpolar. A good student would say ...
a.No, both bonds are highly polar.
b.Yes. O attracts electrons more strongly than C.
c.Right! O is electronegative, so O2 is polar.
d.Wrong again, Ralph. Both bonds are nonpolar. When two atoms of the same kind form a covalent bond, they share electrons equally because their electronegativity is the same.
e.No way. C is more electronegative than O.
Answer: d.Wrong again, Ralph. Both bonds are nonpolar. When two atoms of the same kind form a covalent bond, they share electrons equally because their electronegativity is the same.
Explanation:
Often when O and H are present in the substance at (opposite) ends (of the electronegativity scale), the polarity observed is very large, we can safely say the substance have a polar bond in it.
Lactic acid is a byproduct of short-term cellular respiration do to exercise, but if you mean lactose, then it's just the enzymes, that your stomach produces
Answer:
A) A mutation in a single gene can result in a defective protein.
Explanation:
This hypothesis states that one gene codes for one protein-enzyme, so consequently, if mutation occurs in that gene, the enzyme will not work properly. This hypothesis was very important for the fundamental discoveries of molecular biology, but it is oversimplified meaning that relationship between genes and proteins is much more complex.
If i would have to make an educated guess, i would say C.
The highest potential of the 4 organic molecules found in living beings are nucleic acid, proteins, carbohydrates and lipids.
