Svetllana [295]3 years ago

Answer: Option A.

The electrons are being shared between the carbon and oxygen atoms.

Explanation:The electrons are being shared between the carbon and oxygen atoms because each oxygen share four electrons with the central carbon, therefore carbon atoms have 8 electrons that is shared with oxygen. The oxygen have two shared pairs in double bond and two lone pairs in non bonding. Carbon and oxygen form covalent bond. This satisfies the octet rule because the electrons are shared in both oxygen and carbon octet.

Over time weeds have become resistant to pesticides. Which process explains how pesticide resistance developed? A. natural selec
Mice21 [21]
A. Natural Selection.  This is because the weeds that are not resistant to it die out before they can reproduce, but the resistant ones grow to maturity and then reproduce, passing down the resistance gene.  Over time, the resistance gene would become a normal thing in weeds, while the non-resistant gene would not exist anyone, since the gene could not be passed on.

Which step in translation initiation is unique to eukaryotes? which step in translation initiation is unique to eukaryotes? bind
Hitman42 [59]
The step in translation initiation that is unique to the eukaryotes is:

<span>formation of the preinitiation complex ribosome assembly
</span>
Here are the processes involved in the Translation Initiation of Eukaryotes

1) 5'cap is used to position the mRNA on the 40S ribosomal subunit
2) ribosome scans down the mRNA looking for an AUG.
3) There is an initiator methionine-tRNA
4) The initiating AUG codon is often within a consensus sequence called the Kozak sequence (5'-ACCAUGG-3')
5) After binding the cap, ribosomes scan down the mRNA until the Kozak sequence is reached and translation begins
<span>6)The poly (A) tail and 5'-cap binding proteins help the initiation complex form
