You are working in a lab with a stable, unreactive element. How many valance electrons does this element have?

Biology
1 answer:
fgiga [73]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

8

Explanation:

The element must have a complete octet in order to be unreactive.

Such an unreactive element must be a noble gas/ inert gas/ or group O element.

Most elements on the periodic table try to mimic them.

This configuration makes the group O elements unique and unreactive.

What drives reactively is ability of an atom to lose or gain electron in order to achieve a stable configuration such as that of group O elements.

vova2212 [387]

Cellular communication is the function of the plasma membrane that allows it to respond to certain stimuli from outside the cell and hormones to bind to receptors.

<h3>What is plasma membrane?</h3>

It is a double layer of lipids that covers and delimits the cells, serving as a border between the inside and the outside of the cell, and also allowing a physicochemical balance.

<h3>Characteristics of plasma membrane</h3>

Enables the development of compartments; allows or rejects the entry and/or exit of particles; acts as a mechanical defense; and reacts to external signals and stimuli.

It reacts and transmits information inside the cell, starting certain biochemical processes: cell division, cell movement or the segregation of biochemical substances.

Therefore, we can conclude that the main characteristic of the plasma membrane, that is, its ability to allow or reject the entry of certain molecules into the cell.
