Answer:

The correct answer is 1. EEG.

EEG or electroencephalography is a technique used to measure the electrical activity of the brain.

8 to 16 pairs of electrodes are placed on the scalp which record the electrical activity or impulses (in volts) generated by thousands of neurons or nerve cells present in the brain.

It provides the real-time imaging of the electrical activity of the brain.

The recorded impulses are first sent to the amplifier as the magnitude of the brain's electrical impulses is very low.

The amplifier then amplifies the results and show it on the screen in the form of voltage units.

Why does the oxygen atom in a water molecule have a negative charge

rodikova [14]

In water molecule the electrons between the oxygen and the hydrogen are shared, but the sharing is not equal. Oxygen pulls electrons slightly towards itself. Therefore, the electrons are more near the oxygen, making that part of molecule(oxygen part) slightly negative. Since the electrons are not near the hydrogen so, that part of the molecule is slightly positive.
