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.

Molly's kidney will adapt to this sodium meal by increasing the sodium content of the urine and later decreasing the amount of pure water in the urine. Its accomplished through the hormone aldosterone. as dietary sodium level increases, the secretion of aldosterone decreases resulting in an increase loss of sodium from body and decreases loss of pure water.
