When atoms in a covalent bond share electrons unequally (one atoms pulls more than the other), the bond is said to be __________

IrinaK [193]

When atoms in a covalent bond share electrons unequally (one atoms pulls more than the other), the bond is said to be a polar bond is formed when electrons are unequally shared between two atoms. Polar covalent bonding occurs because one atom has a stronger affinity for electrons than the other (yet not enough to pull the electrons away completely and form an ion).

Evolution is the

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Evolution is the biological process that happens over time in a population, giving rise to new species. The theory of evolution states that all organisms alive on Earth today have a common ancestor which lived years ago.

Explanation:

Evolution is one of the fundamental reason of diverse life on Earth today. Principally, this process takes place by changes in genetic elements via mutations and crossing-over. The positive changes (mutations) allow the organism to develop better condition in order to survive in changing environmment. However, if the changes takes place at major scale, it also leads to the creation/development of new species. To explain this further, I have added a photograph where we can see how different organisms were evolved in the history of Earth.
