Answer: option D) binds with the hemoglobin in red blood cells.

Explanation:

Carbon monoxide (CO) is one of the oxides of carbon. When inhaled, it is toxic as it binds with the respiratory pigment (Hemoglobin) in the red blood cells forming CARBOXY-HEMOGLOBIN, a complex incapable of transporting oxygen across the body, thus resulting in suffocation, and death of victims

What are the possible consequences if only one egg is implanted
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
  <span>are we talking human reproduction? in this case only 1 egg is implanted. in unusual cases there could be 2 eggs implanted meaning fraternal twins. if 1 egg splits, we get identical twins. with only one egg implanted, there is only 1 kid being produced. 

the female has eggs stored from birth. 1 ovary 'pops' once a month to either be discarded via a period or implanted after fertilization. multiple eggs released is usually the effect of fertility drugs making many eggs get released at once. this is unusual unless fertility drugs are in use</span>

Need help on this plz help!!

Tin, because it has five energy levels with four electrons in the fifth level .

Explanation:

Tin has an electronic configuration as

1s2,2s2,2p6,3s2,...........4d10, 5s2,5p2

They have four valence electrons in their outer shell

Among the four diagrams given Tin is least reactive because the atomic radius of tin is largest among all four options. Due to large atomic radius electronegativity decreases and hence Tin is the least reactive element among Neon, Chlorine, gallium and tin.

The electronegativity of an element is its tendency to complete its octet by attracting electrons towards itself. Also tin is at the lowest place in the periodic table among all the four mentioned elements, its ionization energy is also low hence less electronegative and least reactive.

Suppose the phloem of a seed plant is damaged and does not function properly.
Kisachek [45]

Answer:The might likely die.

Explanation:

Phloem and xylem tissues are the major conducting tissues in plant. Xylem conduct ( transports) water and minerals salts from the soil through the roots to all parts of the plant while phloem conducts manufactured food from the leaves to other parts of the plant.

Now, if the phloem of a seed plant is damaged and not functioning well, the manufactured food will not get to other parts of the plant where it is needed or supposed to be stored.

If the plant is no longer getting these nutrients, its growth and development will be affected. It might lead to the death of the plant.
