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.

Make a list of the potential benefits and harms that might arise from knowing your complete genome sequence.
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

The benefits and harms of learning about my DNA are mostly in medical, personal, civil and criminal fields.

Explanation:

a) Pros: learning about my genome sequence could provide new information on the genetic basis of poorly understood diseases with the potential to provide new therapies, immediate benefits based on the current understanding of genetic and health. Being aware of elevated risks for known diseases could allow me to make proactive decisions about my health such as visiting the doctor frequently for more check ups, screening. Choosing one type of prescription drug over another based on my metabolism, changing my diet or exercise plan, informing reproductive decisions, moreover, I would personalize my health care precisely.

b) Cons: the potential harms are the privacy invation, database exposure , which could lead to serious implications for the criminal justice system, which generally seeks to increase the availability of DNA samples from the population. It would create genetic discrimination, meaning that would be harder to find jobs, contract insurance,  even though we have a Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act.

Why is the impermeable layer important? *
earnstyle [38]
There is much more fresh water underground than on the surface. A rock layer must be porous and permeable to be a good aquifer. An impermeable layer makes up the bottom of an aquifer. The water table rises and falls with additions or subtractions to the groundwater system.
