<h2>Answer</h2>

Three types of covalent bonds, they can form

<h2>Explanation</h2>

Carbon has four valence electrons in the outer shell but it forms three covalent bonds with another carbon atom. i.e Single bond, double bond and triple bond.

The single bond is called Alkanes e.g. Methane, Propane etc.

Double bonds are called alkenes e.g. Ethylene, Propylene etc.

Triple bonds are called alkynes e.g. Ethyne, Propyne, Butyne etc.

What does paleontology, biogeography, embryology, and anatomy reveal bout evolution

Ugo [173]

Paleontology deals with fossils and helps in learning the changes of living organisms in sequence.

Biogeography deals with the distribution of species across the mother earth.

Embryology deals with the study of the similarities and difference that exists in the embryos of different species or organisms.

Anatomy deals with the study of the similarities and difference that exists among different species or organisms.

<u>Explanation: </u>

As an organism dies, the remaining of these organisms will be buried in soil. These are fossils. Paleontology supports evolution with the information that are related to the fossils, footprints etc. With these we can study the evolution of organisms and also the changes they undergo. There are some technologies like radiometric dating that can be used for the determination of these rocks and fossils ages.

Charles Darwin suggested that the evolution of species were form their ancestor. Biogeography supports evolution by explaining about the distribution of different species over the earth. Embryology and Anatomy supports evolution by describing about the similarity and difference in the species of living organisms. Embryology deals with the embryos and anatomy deals with the structure.

Hon placed aquatic plants in several test tubes that were filled with water. Then, he placed half of the test tubes in a dark cl

Answer:

Explanation:

The plants in the light formed bubbles because they released oxygen gas, This is because bubbles that are formed takes the places of oxygen molecules O2. Oxygen is released during photosynthesis through the process called light-dependent reaction. The light-dependent reaction occurs only in the presencee of light. So, if bubbles formed are equivalent to oxygen molecules released in light-dependent reaction, then it is expected for bubbles to be found only on the leaves on those plants that were in a well-lit room.
