The correct answer is:

electronegativity

Explanation:

Electronegativity is a model of an atom's strength to attract the shared electrons of a covalent bond to itself. If atoms bonded together have the same electronegativity, the allotted electrons will be moderately shared. If the electrons of a bond are higher attracted to one of the atoms (because it is more electronegative), the electrons will be unevenly shared. If the difference in electronegativity is large enough, the electrons will not be allowed at all; the more electronegative atom will "take" them happening in two ions and an ionic bond.

Attend a basic first-aid course and explain how the information gathered in the course will be specifically helpful to you as a
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

The course of basic first-aid will be helpful for me because it prepares me for any kind of medical emergency, I could save lifes with knowing the correct technique.

Explanation:

Every medical emergency in which someone is in real death danger can involves that the patient´s heart stops and he/she stops breathing. On a basic first-aid course the experts teach us what to do in case that happens, in basic words, to keep the person alive until the ambulance arrives to take the person to a hospital.

First aid involves knowing how to cure a simple burnt to having the heart re-animated by using the needed equipment. They teach us how to to a proper CPR in case someone needs it and-more important- how to know when someone needs it.

Also, they prepar us for several emergencies, like choking with food, an allergy episode (how to use the anti-histamine shot), to keep a fracture well until the specialists arrive.

All this information will be helpful for me as a certified trainer because I will be prepared for any situation and most of all, I will be calm.

Explain how natural selection can lead to evolution.
Mumz [18]
QUICK ANSWERNatural selection leads to evolution because the traits of those who are able to reproduce influence future generations genetics and gradually lead to these passed on traits becoming the normal state of being, thus causing the species in question to evolve. If a group of people have predominantly brown hair genes and have children, then by way of natural selection the dominant gene will increase with future generations, meaning that slowly in time this group of people will evolve to have mostly brown hair genes

Why would there be a relationship between photosynthesis and temperature<br><br> Help me
Mumz [18]

Answer:

Enzyme-controlled chemical reactions combining carbon dioxide and glucose water. The photosynthetic rate is affected by the temperature much like any other enzyme-controlled reaction.

Explanation:

At low temperatures, the number of molecular collisions between enzymes and substrates limits the photosynthetic rate. Enzymes are denatured at high temperatures.

Enzymes are protein molecules used in biological reactions by living organisms. The proteins are folded in a very specific form, which enables them to effectively bind to the molecules of interest. The enzymes used for photosynthesis perform less efficiently at a low temperature between 32 and 50 degrees Fahrenheit 0, 10, and 10 degrees Celsius, which lowers the photosynthesis rate.This will lead to lower glucose synthesis and slow growth. In the case of plants in a greenhouse, this is prevented by installing a greenhouse heater and thermostat.
