Covalent or ionic: transfer of electrons<br> covalent or ionic: sharing of electrons
belka [17]

When two atoms react, they form either of two kinds of bond, ionic bonds or covalent bonds.

Ionic bonds are the type of bonds where there is transfer of electrons from one atom to another.  The electrons are removed and from one atom and attached to  another. A good example is salt which is composed of sodium and chlorine. Sodium readily loses one of its electrons and chlorine readily accepts it. Before losing the electron, sodium has a positive charge, but then becomes negatively charged after giving up the electron. Chlorine has a positive charge before gaining the electron but becomes negatively charged after gaining the electron. These opposite charges between sodium and chlorine attract the two elements together to form the ionic bond.

Covalent bonds are the kind of bonds formed when two atoms share electrons. Here there is sharing, none of the atoms loses an electron and none gains. A good example is water which is formed when oxygen  shares two electrons, each with an atom of hydrogen.

 The Oxygen atom forms two covalent bonds with the pair of hydrogen atoms.

Explanation:

Garden peas were used by Mendel for experiment and are good choice of studying heredity because they have the ability to control their fertilization and transfer pollen . They can engage in either self fertilization or cross's fertilization.

Garden peas are easy to grow and they can be bred very easily and they have alot of traits that can easily be observed i.e their characteristics are visible and they produce many offsprings.

They are of different varieties.

How are nitrogen, phosphorus, and arsenic similar?
irina1246 [14]
All the three elements belong to the same group in the periodic table, that is Group 15 (Va) of the periodic table. They are also known as Nitrogen group element, others are, antimony, bismuth and moscovium. They share certain general similarities in chemical behavior, which reflect common features of the electronic structures of their atoms. 
Each element occupies the fifth position among the main group elements of its period, a position designated 15. Also they possess an outermost shell of five electrons. Additionally, they have an unshared, or lone pair of electrons which remains after the three covalent bonds, or their equivalent, have been formed.
