Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Non-metals are the species which have deficiency of electrons. Therefore, in order to gain stability non-metals tend to gain electrons so that their octet gets completely filled.

For example, atomic number of chlorine is 17 and its electrons are distributed as 2, 8, 7. Thus, in order to completely filled the shell chlorine will gain one electron from an electron rich atom or metal.

Hence, we can conclude that in order for a nonmetal to obey the octet rule, it gains electrons.

Timbre describes the sound’s _____.
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

Terms we might use to describe timbre: bright, dark, brassy, reedy, harsh, noisy, thin, buzzy, pure, raspy, shrill, mellow, strained. I prefer to avoid describing timbre in emotional terms (excited, angry, happy, sad, etc.); that is not the sound quality, it is its effect or interpretation

The reactions of glycolysis occur in the cell's ________; the reactions of the citric acid cycle occur in the ________.
Reil [10]

Answer:

The reactions of glycolysis occur in the cell's <u>cytoplasm</u>; the reactions of the citric acid cycle occur in the <u>mitochondria</u>.

Explanation:

<em><u>Explanations of some terms</u></em>

Glycolysis

Glycolysis takes place in the cytosol of the cell's cytoplasm. Glycolysis starts when glucose diffuses into a cell through the plasma membrane down its concentration gradient. Glycolysis is a metabolic pathway present in all organisms: from yeast to mammals that involves the oxidation of glucose molecules, the single most important organic fuel in plants, and animals to pyruvate with the generation of ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) and NADH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide + hydrogen)

Citric acid cycle

Citric acid cycle also known as the Krebs cycle plays a major role in the process of energy production and biosynthesis as it oxidizes glucose derivatives, fatty acids and amino acids to carbon dioxide.
