Ou tof the following given choices;

<span>a.       </span>elimination

<span>b.      </span>SN2 substitution

<span>c.       </span>Dissociation

<span>d.      </span>None of the above

The answer is B. In SN2 substitution, the leaving group is attached to a primary carbon. This is one of the SN reaction of nucleophilic substitution on dimethylallyl pyrophosphate. The other SN1 reaction, which is the more probable reaction because it's more stable.

Explanation:

Hello!

Let's solve this!

In the biosynthesis process of compounds of great importance, the first step for dimethylalkyl pyrophosphate is the nucleophilic substitution.

In the nucleophilic substitution, it happens that a nucleophilic group, which has electrons, replaces another group called electrophilic which lacks electrons.

Consequently, the nucleophilic group replaces the electrophilic group.

A scientist argues that two species of birds are the same species because they have similar body structure, similar DNA, and sim
sveticcg [70]

Answer:  

Birds have a different mating season this evidence will go against the argument and suggest that the birds are actually different species. Generally, two factors seasonal and behavioral identifies the differences among the species. Species generally interbred among the same population of species according to the season and hence they loose mating opportunities.  Although being sexually compatible they do not interbreed. Behaviorally, a biological clock in species naturally sets breeding cycle according to the resources availability, suitable nesting sites and mating opportunities. Different species have different seasonal requirements to accomplish this.
