Answer:
A carbon atom can form up to four covalent bonds as one carbon atom has four valence electrons (in outermost shell). It is a fact that the number of valence electrons in a atom determines the number of covalent bonds it will form. Thus, each electron in carbon atom is used to form four covalent bonds with various four atoms.
Explanation:
A bond between a carbon and hydrogen atom is a non-polar covalent bond. The non-polar covalent bond are the bonds between two atoms which share equal number of electron(s) with each other. Example: as in case of methane, where one carbon atom shares its 4 outer valence electrons with four hydrogens by sharing equal number of electron.
In contrast, polar covalant bond are the bonds between two atoms which share unequal number of electron(s) with each other. Thus these bonds are partially ionic.
The answer is B. By polluting near by streams with pesticides and herbicides
Answer:
a. allow a variety of molecules to cross the cytoplasmic membrane
Explanation:
The cells have different molecules in its membrane. As a membrane the main function of it is to regulate the income and outcome of substances that the cell needs or the cell has like some wastes.
Some of these molecules can be some proteins like the permeases, that is going to regulate the solutes that can enter the cell, but since they are non specific, that means that can not make the difference among one carbohydrate and another (as an example).
Answer:
The genetic modification variations result in the change in the genome of the organism. In this case, the variations result in expression of a trait in different form than usual. These variations results in genetic mutation, which can be inherited from one generation to another.
In sexual reproduction, the genome of the organism is not altered. In this only an exchange between the maternal and the maternal alleles takes place, these changes does not result in mutations.
You’re welcome :)
