Answer:

Histamine is a protein produced by mast cells in the body. It plays a very important role in the immune system of the body. Histamine is released in the body when affected by an allergen, e.g, pollen or animal dander. The immune system of the body will respond to such allergen by making more mucus in the nose by releasing histamine. There will be sneezing, itching, coughing and runny nose in response. This is a basic defense of the body's immune system to not enter any particle inside the body.

In a compound, such as CH3OH, how determine which is the central atom?

svetlana [45]

Answer:

Choose the least electronegative atom other than H.

Explanation:

A Lewis structure consists of terminal atoms and one or more central atoms.

H can be only a terminal atom because it can form only one bond.

So the central atom must be either C or O.

The central atom is the less electronegative atom: C.

So, start the Lewis structure with a central C atom.

Then attach an O atom to get C-O.

Finally, attach the H atoms.

The condensed formula often gives you a clue where they go.

The formula CH₃OH implies that there are 3 H atoms on C and one on O.

The connectivity of the atoms is then as in the diagram below.
