Answer:Atoms of nonmetals have a tendency to gain or share electrons when they react.
Explanation: Non-metals are elements that gain electron to form negatively charged ions known as anions.
When non-metals react, they either gain/accept electron from a metal atom or share electron with another non-metal atom. When a non-metal accepts an electron from a metal atom, the type of bond formed is called ionic or electrovalent bond. In electrovalent bond, the metal atom transfers its valence electrons to the non-metal atom so that both attain a stable octet or duplet structure.
When a non-metal shares electron with another non-metal atom, the type of bond formed is known as covalent bond. In covalent bond, the two non-metal atoms share a pair of electron, each atom donating one electron to form a pair.
Answer:
Mutualistic means that both organisms benefit.
Explanation:
The acacia tree provides shelter and food to the ants, while the ants protect the tree from other animals.
The right answer for the question that is being asked and shown above is that: "(4) the introduction of a species that has increased the long-term biodiversity of an ecosystem." This plant ruins fishing areas and interferes with boating and other water sports. This is an example of the introduction of a species that has increased the long-term biodiversity of an <span>ecosystem</span>
For the second wig its decreasing
