An oxygen atom alone will have 6 valence electrons (outermost electrons). A hydrogen atom each has 1 electron in its outermost shell to share with the oxygen. For oxygen to have a filled outer shell, it will take one electron from each of the two hydrogens into it's outer shell. This means, the number of electrons in its valence shell will be the original amount of electrons oxygen has by itself plus 1 electron from each hydrogen atom. This will form a water molecule H_2O

Blood is transported throughout the body through both arteries and veins, but a significant difference between the two is the pr
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

A. Blood would leak backwards through the damaged valves due to gravity, causing lower leg swelling.

Explanation:

The passage of blood is always in a single direction in the vein due to the presence of valves in the veins.

Any kind of vein injury or vein rupture, causes the valves in the veins to not function in an appropriate manner. The injury might result in inappropriate opening and closing of these valves. The inappropriate functioning of the valves causes the blood to flow backwards. This will eventually lead to blood pooling and putting more pressure on the lower leg veins. hence, there would be swelling in the lower legs.

Cytosine guanine thymine and adenine are referred to as phosphates. True or False
Harman [31]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Cytosine, guanine, thymine, and adenine are collectively referred to as nitrogenous bases. These are not phosphates. The cytosine, guanine, thymine, and adenine are the four different types of nitrogenous bases. These nitrogenous bases are present in the deoxyribonucleotides. Cytosine and thymine are smaller in structure and have single ring structures. These are collectively called pyrimidines. On the other hand, adenine and guanine are the larger nitrogenous bases each with double ring structures. They are collectively called purines

Why are health authorities concerned when the vaccination rates for an infectious disease fall?
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

When the propagation of an infectious disease gets reduced, people stop getting their children or themselves getting vaccinated for the infectious disease.

But what we forget is somebody out there might be an asymptomatic carrier of the disease and can spread the disease. As a result, if many people are not vaccinated for the particular disease, then there might be an outbreak of the infectious disease again and it can be deadly.
