6 0

Answer:

Mass extinction is when biodiversity or species in a living habitat decreases to about three-fourths of its original number or to none. Such an event is identified by a sharp change in the diversity and abundance of multicellular organisms. It occurs when the rate of extinction increases with respect to the rate of speciation. Mass extinctions are usually associated with organisms that are macroscopic rather than microscopic. Examples of mass extinctions are Permian extinction of marine species, and Cretaceous extinction of various species, including dinosaurs.

Atoms are composed of electrons. These electrons are arranged in shells. The number of valence electrons (outermost shell electrons) determine the kind of bonds that can be formed in a molecule.

In a molecule, charges are distributed in a unique way and the charge distribution in a molecule determines how the molecule interacts with other molecules. Different molecules can be made by arranging the same basic atoms in different ways.

Harmful substances can be formed when atoms of elements combine in new ways in the environment.
