What are valence electrons?

Biology
2 answers:

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The simple answer is the electrons in the outermost energy level.

Hydrogen has 1 electron in the outermost energy level.

Magnesium has 2 so this tells you that magnesium has a charge of 2

Oxygen has 6  oxygen has a charge of - 2

Fluorine has 7

For most elements, the electrons in the most outer ring determine the valence of the element.

Notice that the non metals work differently than the metals. Mg may have a charge of 2 and that is the number of electrons in the valence right.

Oxygen is a non metal it has a charge of - 2. It gets 6 electrons by subtracting the number of its charge from 8.

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Sympathetic division is responsible for the nervousness, pounding in the chest and the butterfly movement in the stomach while parasympathetic division overest a and digest the nervousness.

Explanation:

The nervousness experienced when someone is about to speak in front of a class is caused by the sympathetic system which have divergent effects as many different effector organs are activated together for that same purpose. I.e More oxygen are inhaled and delivered to skeletal muscle. The respiratory, cardiovascular, and musculoskeletal systems are all activated at the same time causing an unstable reaction to the central nervous system...

On the other hand, the parasymthetic division causes the central nervous system to rest and digest at a very slow rate..

At a point in time the central nervous system triggered an Homeostasis action which posses a balance between the two divisions.I.e symthetic and parasymthetic and then brings about a balance to the body reaction at that same point.
