Answer:
Climate change will make plants—and us—thirstier. The combined effects of increased CO2 levels and warmer temperatures will increase water consumption by vegetation. That will lead to water declines in streams and rivers like the Ashepoo River in South Carolina
Explanation:
Answer: Through extensive bonding
Explanation:
Oxidation of two cysteine gives disulphide bonds. They are covalent in nature. Given as;
R-CH2-SH + R'-CH2 +02 = R-CH2-S-S-CH2-R' + H202
They are the stabilizing force behind protein folding the endoplasmic reticulum. Proteins being the backbone of our genetic constitution require disulphide bonding to stabilize the peptide molecules and the extent and number of this bonding determines the Resistance of the protein molecule to extreme conditions e.g extreme heat which denatures proteins and elasticity as well.
(a) The nucleus has most of the mass and comprises most of the volume of an atom; false
The nucleus has most of the mass but the volume of an atom is depends on the distance between the nucleus and the position of the electrons.
(b) Every atom of a given element has the same number of protons; true
They may have different number of neutrons and so you have isotopes but the number of protons remain the same for a given element.
(c) The number of electrons in an atom equals the number of neutrons in the atom; false
The number of electrons in an atom equals the number of protons in the atom.
The electrons are negatively charged which compensate the positively charged protons not the neutrons which do not have a charge (they are neutral).
(d) The protons in the nucleus of the helium atom are held together by a force called the strong nuclear force. true
Hmmm.. i think B. I dont understand the the answer choices.
The atomic size trend in the periodic table is increasing from right to left and from top to bottom. Hence when comparing a chlorine atom and a sodium atom, it is seen that chlorine is seen on the far left side of the periodic table while sodium is seen on the far right side. This means sodium is thus greater in atomic size than a chlorine atom.
