<u>Answer</u>: Ionic bond

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • An ionic bond is a type of a chemical bond formed by the complete transfer of electrons from one atom to another atom i.e one of the atoms loses its electrons and the other gains it. This results in the formation of 2 oppositely charged ions.
  • In sodium chloride, sodium loses one electron from its outermost shell (valence shell) whereas chloride gains it. Due to this sodium gains, a net positive charge and chloride gain a net negative charge.
  • So, due to the complete transfer of electrons that takes place from sodium to chloride, the compound generated (Sodium chloride) has an ionic bond.

The pea aphid, a type of insect, contains light-capturing pigments in its exoskeleton. Pea aphids gained the ability to synthesi
EastWind [94]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Based on the information given we can not say pea aphid as an autotroph. Because pea aphid ability to produce ATP in the presence of sun is due to the light-capturing pigment that it gains from the genes transferred from fungi.

As pea aphid do not have any chloroplast and it cannot fix carbon so it is not a true autotroph. We can say it false autotroph because it can produce ATP in the presence of sunlight and can show increased production of ATP at the higher level of pigment.
