Answer:
1. Fluorine (7 electrons) => c. steals 1 electron
2. Calcium (2 electrons) => a. gives away 2 electrons
3. Oxygen (6 electrons) => d. steals 2 electrons
4. Lithium (1 electron) => e. gives away 1 electron
5. Xenon (8 electrons) => b. neither gives away nor steals any electron
Explanation:
Given the following valence electrons of the atoms listed above, each atom can be matched to its corresponding number of electrons it can steal or give away as they form bonds and attain a stable state:
1. Fluorine (7 electrons) => this will steal 1 electron from another atom to attain a stable state when it comes to make the number of electrons 8.
2. Calcium with 2 valence electrons, will give away this 2 electrons in its outer shell to be stable and form bond with another atom that will accept these 2 electrons.
3. Oxygen with 2 valence electrons, will steal 2 electrons to make the electrons in its outer shell 8, as it bonds with another atom to become stable.
4. Lithium will give away 1 electron to become stable when it combines.
5. Xenon with 8 electrons in its outer shell is in a stable state and kind of inert. It doesn't need to receive or steal any electron from or to any other atom in this state.
Answer:
I don't think there is a #6, so I'm gonna answer the "Mammals and plants don't belong in the same domain".. If this is the wrong one I can help with the one you actually need help with.
Explanation:
Myth: Mammals and plants don't belong in the same domain.
Fact: Mammals, being a group of animals do not belong in the same domain as plants. Evidence: All living organisms are divided into three domains: Bacteria, Archaea and Eukarya. All of the organisms that possess a eukaryotic cell, plants, animals, protists, and fungi are in the Eukarya domain. Therefore, mammals and plants belong to the same domain, the Eukarya domain.
Answer:
Tissue
Explanation:
The levels of organization go as follows:
Atom - the building blocks of all living and nonliving material
Molecule - two or more atoms that join together in chemical bond
Organelle - two or more molecules working together to perform a particular function in a cell
Cell - the smallest unit that exhibits all of the characteristics of life
<u>Tissue - two or more cells that work together to perform a particular function</u>
Organ - two or more tissues that work together to perform a particular function
Organ System - two or more organs that work together to perform a particular function
Multi-Celled Organism - two or more organ systems that work together
Answer:
C, there is genetic variation within the population
Explanation:
Answer:
Explanation:
Scientists use Taxonomy, the science of classifying living things, in order to make sense of biodiversity and how living things are related. For example, the classification of species is important in light of a changing environment because it helps scientists keep track of endangered species and what new species were formed because of the environmental change.
