What are hydrogen bonds and how do they affect the physical characteristics of water?

Biology
1 answer:
Kobotan [32]3 years ago
8 0

Explanation:

A hydrogen bond is a common type of chemical bond in organisms. As the name suggests, this type of bond involves a hydrogen atom. The hydrogen is attracted to a strongly electronegative atom, such as oxygen, fluorine, or nitrogen of a polar covalent bond in the same or another molecule.

This gives water unique properties, such as a relatively high boiling point, high specific heat, cohesion, adhesion and density.

Gene testing is foolproof since it scans the building blocks of humans. Please select the best answer from the choices provided.
Harrizon [31]

False

reason -

Gene testing is not full proof as there are  possibilities of discrepancies in it based on the testing procedures used and the condition of sample. Since we human beings have the same genomic structure there are chances that our DNA may match with other people who do not share a heredity with our family. Basically statistical probability is used to determine probability of paternity, relationship of any kind etc. among two individuals . usually A 99% or higher percentage of probability is considered conclusive. and thus it gene testing can not be considered as full proof

Why are cells limited in size?
seropon [69]
Cell is limited in size for many reasons. Cells wouldn't be respire effectively if it were too large, because the surface area to the volume ratio would be too small.
The other thing is that if the cell were too large, it would be difficult for it to move nutrients and waste products in and out of the cell. So, cells are limited in size.

After people have been drinking: ✗
mario62 [17]

For the first Question: The right answer is only A.

After people have drunk, it will be harder for them to make quick decisions, as is the case in driving, since motor coordination and judgment are impaired,

It can take up to two hours or more to get rid of the alcohol (it depends on the ethnicity of the person and whether it is a regular drinker or not), so it would take a lot more than an hour to get rid of alcohol in the body.


For the second question: the right answer is All above

According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism in the USA, one standard drink contains approximately 14 grams of pure alcohol, which represents the measures mentioned in the MCQ.


For the third question: 

When the victim has just absorbed too much toxic, he initially has troubles of consciousness and a ventilatory stop that can change, in the absence of first aid, to death.

As soon as you discover this toxic abuse, call the SAMU (15) and do the first aid:

In case of disturbances of consciousness, carefully tilt your head backward.

Check for the presence of breathing movements, and place the casualty in the lateral safety position.

In the presence of respiratory arrest, after having checked the presence of a carotid pulse, practice mouth-to-mouth.

In all cases, surveillance of the victim is mandatory until the arrival of medical aid.
