Flying insects such as bees may accumulate a small positive electric charge as they fly. In one experiment, the mean electric ch
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

a) True

Explanation:

There are several possible explanations for this positive charge

* The explanation of the small positive charge in the plant when the bee approaches is like a defense system of the plants,

to prevent the bees from taking the pollen, but the flowers need the bees to transport the pollen for fertilization, so this possibility is not correct

* The air is conductive so the bee indexes a charge in the nearby air, this charge must be negative and this charge induced in the air induces a charge on the flower that must be positive.

When reviewing the different statements we have

a) True, it agrees with the second explanation of the phenomenon

b) False. The earth is a deposit of negative charge

c) false. If this is the case the charge should be negative

d) False. This residual charge from the other bees is quickly neutralized by the charge from the Earth.

How many leptons are in ⁷₃Li?
shutvik [7]

-- Electrons are leptons.  There are <em>three</em> electrons in each neutral Lithium atom.

The last two parts of the question are absurd.

-- Bonbons are candy, not atomic particles.  A bonbon cannot fit into a Lithium atom.

-- A pentagon is a closed geometric figure that has five sides.  Although you could, in principle, have a pentagon small enough to fit into a Lithium atom, you could never find a piece of paper small enough to draw it on.
