Biology

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.

pav-90 [236]
Since Mary has a Type A blood, she is either AA or AO while John is either BB or BO. Since both John's parents are Type AB, he can only have the either A or B as an allele and not O so he is BB. Since John can only give the B allele, all of his children must have the B allele in their blood types. So the adopted one is the child with type A blood.

What will most likely happen if a person does not consume the minimum daily requirement of carbohydrates
Mice21 [21]

  If a person does not consume the minimal daily requirement of carbohydrates than the body will start to use the fat and proteins in the body so that it can produce energy. The carbohydrates are the primary energy source in the body, so the lack of them makes the body low on energy, and also it makes it harder to think and to remain active. If this process continues for a prolonged period of time, than it causes the building up of ketones in the blood, which results in ketosis.
