Answer:
Cations are ions that are positively charged. They form when they lose an electron because they would have more protons than electrons. In your problem you have for example potassium (number three).
Iodine is a cation because it lost one electron. The ion symbol then would be:
I ⁺
So this is your clue. If it has a positive or a plus sign on top, that would make it a cation. Another clue would be if it LOST an electron, then it is a cation.
An anion, on the other hand, is negatively charged, because they gain electrons, making the electrons more than the protons. In your problem, you have Iodine as an example (number one).
Iodine gained one electron and the ion symbol would be:
I⁻
So again that is your clue for anions, they have a negative or a minus sign on top of the symbol. If they GAINED an electron, that would make them an anion.
Naming monoatomic anions is easy. They are named with the suffix -ide at the end. (Cations retain their name). For example Sulfur (number two).
Sulfur is an anion that gained two electrons with an ion symbol of:
S²⁻
So from the name <u>Sulfur</u><u> </u>the name will change into "Sulfide" and its name will now be <u>Sulfide ion. </u>

got it right on egde. brainliest pleaase.
guy above me, please dont be an a-hole
Jellyfish do not have a central nervous system.
Squids which belongs to Cephalopoda (class of Mollusca) have the most complex nervous system of the invertebrates. They have well-developed senses and large brains. So, they are considered as the most intelligent of the invertebrates.
Dolphins, on the other hand, are regarded as one the most intelligent animal.
Answer and Explanation:
Protein is one of the most important molecules in our organism, being present in the composition of all elements, in addition to participating in several metabolic processes. This importance creates the need to study this molecule, however, to study it it is necessary to know the composition chemistry and the levels of structure it presents.
The chemical composition of proteins is related to amino acids, since protein is formed by them. In this case, we can say that the proteins have the same composition as the amino acids containing carboxylic acid and different amino groups, which is what determines the name and function of the amino acid.
In addition to chemical composition, the structure levels of proteins are extremely important, as they only function at a specific structural level. As for these levels, proteins can have a primary structure (there are more than two amino acids organized in a linear row), a secondary structure (when the primary structure turns into a helix species), a tertiary structure (formed by a more intense folding of the secondary structure providing the appearance of helices and leaves) and quarternary structure (when several tertiary structures are joined, allowing folding at the three-dimensional level. This is the functional structure of the protein).
Answer:
d. CT scans of the fossilized skulls of Hobbits suggest they were probably microcephalic modern Homo sapiens.
Explanation:
The work of Falk et al in 2007 compared the CT of microcephalic humans skulls and normal humans skulls, finding the variables that allow them to classified with 100% success. When compared with the skulls of the ‘Hobbits’ of Flores, the size is similar to the microcephalic skulls in humans but the shape features sort it with normal humans skulls. They concluded that the ‘Hobbits’ of Flores are a separate species.
