The element that is likely to form a ionic bond with potassium is Cl (answer A)
<em><u>Explanation</u></em>
Ionic bond - is a bond formed when a metal and a non metal react.
Metal loses electron ( donate electrons) while non metal gains electrons ( accept electrons) to form ionic bond.
potassium is a metal while Chlorine(Cl) is a non metal. They react to form an ionic bond by potassium donating 1 electron while chlorine accept 1 electron.
Answer:
<u>C) They may provide selective advantages.
</u>
<u>D) Slight differences in the genetic code may have significant results.</u>
Explanation:
The genetic code is universal, and present in most living beings . Generally, in most living organisms, the same codons are assigned to the same amino acids.
DNA sequences make up genes that may have multiple variants, called alleles. DNA deoxyribonucleic acid, is transcribed into mRNA and then translated into amino acids that form proteins.
Natural selection mainly acts on phenotypes, which are dependent on proteins and the organisms's environment. Phenotypes conferring advantageous traits are favored by the selection process- these help groups of organisms evolve over time.
Individual and public health are affected by environmental and genetic factors is a statement which reflects reality. Firstly, susceptibility to certain diseases usually or often runs in a family so that if there is say, diabetes in the father and grandmother for example, the son or daughter has more chances of getting it so this is a genetic susceptibility.. Also, some families are more prone to cancer so that given the right circumstances, cancer can develop. So it is usually a combination of both genetic and environmental causes that results in a disease. An example of public health could be when smallpox was deliberately introduced to the First Nations people in British Columbia, Canada back in the 1800's to decimate them and remove their resistance to the gold mining hordes. Since the First Nations had no anti-bodies to counteract such a disease unlike the white men who introduced it to them, then they easily fell prey to it and died within days of contracting it.
The procedure is called renal angiography. This procedure is done to check the quality of blood flow to the kidneys, check for blockages, narrowing of the blood vessels and lastly aneurysm. A dye is usually injected into the arteries for easier visualization.
