Answer:
Meiosis produces haploid cells (gametes), which contain single chromosomes, or on-half the number of chromosomes in diploid cells. When a sperm and an egg join, the single chromosomes pair up, which results in genetic diversity in the offspring
Answer:
The phenomenon of plasmolysis.
Explanation:
When cells of Elodea are placed in a salt solution the phenomenon of plasmolysis occurs and the water will start to move out from the cell. The concentration of salts in the cell will get high due to the diffusion of salt molecules inward. The organelles will look like as they are centered to the cell by hook.
Answer is: a) ionization energy and electronegativity.
1) The ionization energy (Ei) is the minimum amount of energy required to remove the valence electron, when element lose electrons, oxidation number of element grows (oxidation process).
Barium, potassium and arsenic are metals (easily lost valence electrons), chlorine is nonmetal (easily gain electrons).
Alkaline metals (far left in Periodic table) have lowest ionizations energy and easy remove valence electrons (one electron), earth alkaline metals (next right to alkaline metals) have higher ionization energy than alkaline metals, because they have two valence electrons.
Nonmetals are far right in the main group and they have highest ionization energy, because they have many valence electrons.
2) Electronegativity (χ) is a chemical property that describes the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons towards itself.
Atoms with higher electronegativity attracts more electrons towards it, electrons are closer to that atom.
Nonmetals hava higher electronegativity than metals and metalloids.
3) The atomic radius decreases across the periods because an increasing number of protons, because greater attraction between the protons and electrons.
