Answer:

option B) The oxygen end of the molecule has a partial negative charge and the hydrogen end has a partial positive charge.

Justification:

The electronegativity of an element accounts for its relative ability to attract electrons.

Being oxygen more electronegative than hdyrogen (the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 while the electronegativity of the hydrogen is 2.20), the electron density will be displaced toward the oxygen, letting it with a partial negative charge and the hydrogen with a partial positive charge.

Finally, since the charge is not symmetrical distributed around a center of the molecule, the molecule ends being polar.

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

Transphobia is a big one of course, but if she's family oriented, not being able to have a pregnancy and children of her own are a huge hit to the self esteem. I've also heard that the scarring from surgeries and dysphoria can make it unbearable at some points.

Explanation:

I have several trans friends, so it's always nice to spread information about these things when I can :)
