Answer:
Defective collagen proteins affect an individuals joints, as <u>collagen is an important component protein in body</u><u> connective tissues</u>
Explanation:
Collagen is a crucial protein in the extracellular matrix of various connective tissues in body (tendons, ligaments, muscles). It constitutes major protein component in mammals body.
Collagen Vascular disease is a group of diseases affecting 'collagen' connecting tissue. Apart from inheritance, they can con occur due to autoimmune disease. This implies that body's immune system fights against itself & mistakenly damages its own tissues. So, these diseases have a huge bearing on body joints components. Eg : Lupus , Arthritis are common collagen vascular diseases. Arthritis mostly affects adults above 30 years of age, lupus can be diagnosed in younger people above 15 years of age also.
Answer: The bond between boron and hydrogen in boron trihydride is covalent bond.
Explanation:
The type of bonding between the atoms forming a compound is determined by using the electronegativity difference between the atoms. According to the pauling's electronegativity rule:
- If
, then the bond is non-polar. - If
, then the bond will be covalent. - If
, then the bond will be ionic.
We are given:
Electronegativity for boron = 2.0
Electronegativity for hydrogen = 2.1

As,
is less than 1.7 and not equal to 0. Hence, the bond between boron and hydrogen is covalent bond.
The answer is -1. 2 subtraction signs next to each other for an addition sign
Answer: 4 hydrogens
Explanation:
This is what the structure will look like C=C. Remember that it's important that all structures have a complete octet. As it looks right now each carbon is sharing 4 valence electrons so each needs 2 more bonds to hydrogen complete its octet.
