Answer: Electrons positioned closer to the nucleus have a greater attraction to the protons and are more likely to be discharged from the atom than electrons farther away.

Explanation: The electrons being negatively charged repel each other due to like charges. The protons being positively charged are attracted towards the negatively charged electrons.

The electrons which are near to nucleus are more tightly held by the protons and thus are more difficult to remove from the atom. The electrons which are far from the nucleus are less tightly held and are easily removed from the atom.

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An atom consists of three sub-atomic particles which are electrons, protons and neutrons.

As electrons are negatively charges, protons are positively charged and neutrons have no charge.

And since, electrons revolve around the nucleus (nucleus contains both protons and neutrons) so, there exists a strong force of attraction between the protons and electrons near the nucleus.

Hence, electrons near the nucleus are difficult to discharge.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement electrons positioned closer to the nucleus have a greater attraction to the protons and are more likely to be discharged from the atom than electrons farther away, does not accurately describe the forces that exist with an atom.

How did Gregor Mendel's research affect the science of his time?
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

The correct option is A. His research was not appreciated by the scientific community until after he died.

Explanation:

Gregor Mendel was an Austrian monk who laid the foundation of genetics. Mendel studies seven traits from the pea plants and formed the law of segregation and law of independent assortment.

The work of Mendel was not appreciated until his death. In the 20th century, his work was eventually rediscovered and appreciated.

However, Mendel's study did not include any explanations for polygenic traits. His results could predict heritability in both plants and animals.
