The right answer is polarity.
In chemistry, polarity is a characteristic describing the distribution of negative and positive charges in a dipole. The polarity of a bond or a molecule is due to the difference in electronegativity between the chemical elements that compose it, the differences in charge that it induces, and to their distribution in space. The more the charges are distributed asymmetrically, the more a bond or molecule will be polar, and conversely, if the charges are distributed in a completely symmetrical manner, it will be apolar, that is to say non-polar.
Polarity and its consequences (van der Waals forces, hydrogen bonding) affect a number of physical characteristics (surface tension, melting point, boiling point, solubility) or chemical (reactivity).
Many very common molecules are polar, such as sucrose, a common form of sugar. The sugars, in general, have many oxygen-hydrogen bonds (hydroxyl group -OH) and are generally very polar. Water is another example of a polar molecule, which allows polar molecules to be generally soluble in water. Two polar substances are very soluble between them as well as between two apolar molecules thanks to Van der Waals interactions.
Answer:
Starch
Explanation:
Any member of a class of enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis (splitting of a compound by addition of a water molecule) of starch into smaller carbohydrate molecules such as maltose (a molecule composed of two glucose molecules).
Answer:
Tree frogs use plants as protection. Golden jackals, once they have been expelled from a pack, will trail a tiger to feed on the remains of its kills. Goby fish live on other sea animals, changing color to blend in with the host, thus gaining protection from predators.
Explanation:
Explanation:
Species of rats are found throughout the order Rodentia, but stereotypical rats are found in the genus Rattus. Other rat genera include Neotoma (pack rats), Bandicota (bandicoot rats) and Dipodomys (kangaroo rats). Rats are typically distinguished from mice by their size.
