Which scenario would cause a covalent bond to form?

Biology

Answer: A) Two atoms share electrons so they can fill their outer shells

Explanation: A covalent bond is a type of bond formed by sharing equal number of electrons between two non-metal atoms so that both of them can attain a stable octet or duplet structure of noble gases.

In covalent bonding, there is no loss or gain of electrons between atoms. For example, the formation of chlorine molecule, chlorine atom has seven electrons in its outermost shell, remaining one electron to attain an octet structure of noble gases. Two chlorine atoms share one pair of electron, each chlorine atom donating one electron to form a pair so that each atom in the chlorine molecule attains an octet structure..

Suppose an exponentially growing culture of bacteria is treated with a potential antimicrobial compound. Over the next few hours
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

Bacteriostatic

Explanation:

The antibiotics are the compounds which are used to treat the bacteria and are of two types: the bacteriostatic and bactericidal.

The bacteriostatic antibiotics are the antibiotics that do not kill the cells but they stop the reproduction of the bacteria and keep them in their stationary phase.

In the given question, since the antibiotic does not kill the cell but stops the doubling that is reproduction therefore the antibiotic is bacteriostatic.

Thus, bacteriostatic is correct.

Not long ago, it was believed that a count of the number of protein-coding genes would provide a count of the number of proteins
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

c) Alternative splicing

Explanation:

Eukaryotic genes have protein-coding sequences called exons and non-protein coding sequences called introns. Introns are removed from the primary transcript after transcription. Some sequences may serve as both introns and exons. These sequences may be removed as introns or may be retained as exons producing mRNA with different combinations of exons from the single primary transcript. The process of called alternative splicing and allows the formation of more than one mRNAs from a single gene.

Therefore, alternative splicing allows one protein-coding sequence to code for more than one type of related proteins. It does not allow to correlate the number of protein-coding genes with the total number of proteins produced by a species.
