Explanation:

crossing over is a process that happens between human organs chromosome in order to increase general diversity. during crossing over part of one chromosome is exchange with another. the result is a hybrid chromosome with a unique pattern of genetic material. gametes gain the ability to be genetically different from their neighbouring gametes after crossing over occurs. this a loss for genetic diversity which will help cell participate in survival of the fittest and the evolution.

Show a diagram of how ions are formed when a sodium atom comes into close

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

The diagram is attached below.

Explanation:

when sodium and chlorine comes close together they form anion and cation. The compound formed is called sodium chloride.

Both atoms bonded together through ionic bond.

Ionic bond:

It is the bond which is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to the atom of another element.

Both bonded atoms have very large electronegativity difference. The atom with large electronegativity value accept the electron from other with smaller value of electronegativity.

For example:

Sodium chloride is ionic compound. The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.93. There is large difference is present. That's why electron from sodium is transfer to the chlorine. Sodium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion.
