Use the periodic table to select the element that best fits each of the following descriptions. which element below has properti
xenn [34]

Answer: Boron is the element which has properties of both metals and nonmetals.

Explanation:

Metals are defined as the elements which loose electrons to attain stable electronic configuration. They attain positive charge and form cation. Example: Zinc (Zn), Aluminium (Al) , copper (Cu)

Non-metals are defined as the elements which gain electrons to attain stable electronic configuration. They attain negative charge and form anion. Example: Chlorine (Cl) , Sulphur (S)

Metalloids are defined as the elements which show properties of both metals and non-metals. There are 7 metalloids in the periodic table. They are Boron (B) , Silicon (Si) , Germanium (Ge) , Arsenic (As) ,  Antimony (Sb), Tellurium (Te) and Polonium (Po).

Thus boron is the element which has properties of both metals and nonmetals.

What is the type of mutation represented by the amino acid sequence below?
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Substitution mutation

Explanation:

A substitution mutation is a type of mutation in which one or more nucleotide base is replaced by another in a sequence. This will result in the replacement of one or more amino acid in the amino acid sequence.

This is the case in this question where the original amino acid sequence was given as: Leucine – Alanine – Glycine – Leucine. After mutation, the following mutated sequence was produced: Leucine – Alanine – Valine – Leucine.

As illustrated above, one would notice that there is replacement of GLYCINE amino acid by VALINE in the mutated sequence, hence, it is an example of SUBSTITUTION MUTATION.

Arsenic produces a blue flame when heated. Calcium produces an orange-red flame. Which of these best explains why this differenc
MrMuchimi

Flame colors are produced from the movement of the electrons in the metal ions present in the compounds. When you heat it, the electrons gain energy and can jump into any of the empty orbitals at higher levels Each of these jumps involves a specific amount of energy being released as light energy, and each corresponds to a particular color. As a result of all these jumps, a spectrum of colored lines will be produced. The color you see will be a combination of all these individual colors.
