Biology
1 answer:
mafiozo [28]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

C. Two oxygen atoms

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Types of Bonds</u>

  • Covalent Bonds - forms between 2 non-metals
  • Ionic Bonds - forms between a non-metal and a metal
  • Metallic Bonds - forms between 2 metals

Explanation:

Any metal forming a compound with an non-metal is an ionic bond. Therefore, A and D are incorrect.

  • Fe (Iron) is a Transition Metal forming an ionic bond with O (Oxygen), a non-metal.
  • Na (Sodium) is a Alkali Metal forming an ionic bond with Cl (Chlorine), a non-metal.

Any 2 metals forming bonds with each other is a metallic bond. Therefore, B is incorrect.

  • Na forms a metallic bond with Na.

Any 2 non-metals forming bonds with each other is a covalent bond. There are 2 types of covalent bonds: non-polar and polar.

  • O forms a covalent bond with O.

Therefore, our answer is C.

During photosynthesis, oxygen is converted to carbon dioxide. True False
andreyandreev [35.5K]
This is false. Carbon dioxide is taken in, and oxygen out. Oxygen is not converted to carbon dioxide. It is a waste of the chemical reaction taking place, just like carbon dioxide is a waste in the respiratory process for us.

I hope this helps!

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

a. they can fix carbon at the lower CO2 concentrations that develop when the stomata are closed

Explanation:

C4 plants are those that have the capacity to fix CO2 even when a tiny concentration of it is available.

Desert condition is characterized by dryness and strong heat with both condition capable of creating water stress in plant as a result of evapotranspiration. In order to reduce evapotranspiration rate, desert plants (most C4 plants) close their stomata during the day.

<em>Stomata closure limit the diffusion of CO2 into desert plants and the small concentration of CO2 that results is utilized by a special enzyme in the plants.</em>

The correct option is a.
