Describe the chemical make up and type of bonding found in water molecules?

Biology
1 answer:
andre [41]3 years ago
4 0
Water molecules consist of 2 Hydrogen and 1 Oxygen atom. They are bonded by a polar covalent bond, meaning the electrons shared by the covalanet bonds are not evenly distributed. Oxygen is more electronegative than Hydrogen and will pull the electrons from its bonds with Hydrogen closer to itself. Thus results in a partial positive dipole on the Hydrogen of the water molecule and a partial negative dipole on the Oxygen of the water molecule. These partial charges allow water to hydrogen bond with one another through a process called cohesion.

Describe the advantage of reflex response in the survival of organisms
NARA [144]

Answer

Reflex response helps to keep organisms alive by quickening their reaction times when in danger instead of having to think about what they need to do

Explanation:

Think about your friend throwing something at your face. What do you do- you probably cover up your face, or try to move out of the way. This is a reflex, and it saves your face from pain. While this is a silly example, these type of automatic "reflex" reactions are absolutely vital in the wild. Mice have the reflex to run when a they see or hear what they think is a predator. This give them the precious seconds they need to escape certain death. Say they didn't move on reflex. If they instead sat and thought about what they needed to do, the predator would catch them and they would die.

In the peppered moth scenarios what is the variation? And the selection?
Morgarella [4.7K]

Variation is number of alleles for the wing color of the peppered moths. The wing color ranges from pure white to pure back.

Selection pressure is predation by birds.

Explanation:

In the wake of the industrial revolution, white-winged peppered moths had a large allelic frequency in the population compared to black-winged peppered moths. However, when the environment changed due to soot produced by industries (making the environment darker) white-winged peppered moths reduced while that of black moths increased.

This is because black moths were able to blend in and camouflage in the dark environment than white-winged peppered moths that stood out to their predators. Black moths, therefore, had an increased chance of reaching adulthood and passing their genes to the next generation. This increased the allelic frequency of black-winged peppered while that of white-winged moths reduced in the population.

A species of mud snail was studied for five years. During this time, scientists observed the season in which they mated, the num
sergij07 [2.7K]

The correct answer is option B. The scientists were studying if the mud snails can reproduce both sexually and asexually. The characteristics in the study included parameters such as the mating season, number of offspring, effect of environmental stress conditions and lack of mates. Out of all the parameters being studied can affect asexual reproduction in the mud snail but lack or presence of mates is a parameter required to be studied to determine the mode of reproduction i.e. sexual or asexual because need for mates or mate dependent reproduction occurs in case of sexual reproduction.
