Answer:

an atom with a single electron in its outermost shell

Explanation:

The electron in the outermost shell of an atom has weakest bonding with the nucleus due to the relatively far distance. Since the lower attraction force can be exerted by nucleus, the single election residing in the outermost shell tends to lose and the atom become an positive charges ion.

One example of atom with single electron in its outermost shell is sodium, Na. Sodium atom can lose its single outermost shell an become positive ion Na+

Which form of succession replaces<br> an<br> existing system after a calamity?
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Secondary succession

Explanation:

Ecological succession is the term used to describe any series of change in the composition of an ecosystem over a particular period of time. Ecological succession is made up of two types viz: primary succession and secondary succession.

Primary succession involves the formation of a brand new ecosystem by the colonization of a barren area of land e.g bare rock, where no life existed. Secondary succession, on the other hand, is the recolonization of an area by a new set of organisms because the previously existing organisms have been wiped out by certain disasters e.g fire outbreak, hurricanes etc. In secondary succession, there is soil, which makes it possible for new organisms to sprout quickly after the calamity.

Example of secondary succession is when a fire outbreak burns the organisms in a community, allowing the root of grasses to sprout after.
