Explanation:
In a covalent bond, there is sharing of the donated electron by two atomic species having very small electronegative differences between them.
Oxidation is the loss of electrons by a specie and it usually lead to an increase in oxidation number.
Reduction is the gain of electrons by a specie. It leads to a lower oxidation number.
Since there is no actual loss of gain of electrons in a covalent body, the electronegativiy is at work.
Electronegativity is the ability of a specie to draw the shared electrons more to itself in a covalent bond.
- Between two atoms bonded covalently, the more electronegative specie draws the electrons closer.
- This leaves a partial negative charge on it.
- The other electron then becomes partially positively charged.
- We can then say, the more electronegative specie undergoes reduction.
- The less electronegative one undergoes oxidation.

The one on Earth’s surface is a meteorite.
The one in earth’s atmosphere is a meteoroid.
And the one in space is a meteor.
White. one of them has the dominant gene but they are both white so the baby will probably end up being white as well
Breakwaters protect an anchorage from the effects of weather and longshore drift, while jetties protect against erosion, by keeping the waves from sweeping the sand away. Difference, they both protect against different things.
