Answer:

An electron is transferred from one atom to another.

Explanation:

Ionic bonds are formed between cations and anions. When an electronegative atom gains an electron from an electropositive atom, the former becomes negatively charged anion while the later atom acquires a positive charge and is called cation.

The opposite charges of anion and cation attract each other and join them by an ionic bond. Example: Na+ and Cl- ions are bonded together by ionic bond and form NaCl.

Explain how cells specialize to form specific tissue and organs?
S_A_V [24]
<span>All cells have the same DNA. They are different because different genes have been locked up and only some of them are expressed. The process began in the embryonic stage, when stem cells are turned into different types of cells by turning off some of the genes. Scientists have been looking for ways to reverse the process, meaning turning specialized cells back into stem cells. Some success has been reported using different methods. The latest one uses a weak acid to stress the cells.</span>
