According to a new study, spider's fangs are considered to be natural needles that they use for piercing the skeletons of prey and delivering the kiss of a venom. The fangs can also be used as a defense mechanism towards their predator or towards humans.

On the other hand, the crustacean's claws, like the crab claws can be used for protection, as well as for communication, excavating burrows, attracting mates and gathering food.

While the centipedes use their claw to grab their prey and inject venom to kill it or to protect itself from being harmed.

Considering these definitions, we can say the Gerri and Alana are both correct since the spider uses its fangs to inject venom like the centipede and to protect itself like the crustaceans.

What happens to a potassium atoms electrons when it becomes an ion?
Scrat [10]
The alkali metals in group l of the periodic table all have a single electron in the outermost shell. These metals form covalent bonds with for example the halogens, which have 7 electrons in their outer shell.
When the alkali metal halide, such as KCl is dissolved in water, it dissociates into ions. The K atom loses the single electron, and therefore has a positive charge. In turn, the chloride atom gains the electron and becomes the negatively charged chloride ion.

Protein molecules called cytochromes are part of the electron transport chain. they are nearly identical in every known aerobic
castortr0y [4]

Cytochromes:- They are iron containing hemoproteins that serve many cellular functions including energy production, steroid biosynthesis, and degradation of toxins.

Cytochromes occur in all organisms except a few obligate anaerobes. They are structurally similar among organisms. These are proteins to which one to two tetrapyrrole rings are bound. These tetrapyrroles are very similar to the chromophores of chlorophylls in plants. However, chlorophylls(in plants) contain Mg++ as the central atom in the tetrapyrrole, whereas the cytochromes(in aerobic animals) have an iron atom (Figure).

in which ventricular dysrhythmia do three or more pvcs occur in a row with a ventricular rate greater than 100 bpm?
OLga [1]

The ventricles can cause ventricular tachycardia, a rapid dysrhythmia with heart rates of 100 to 250 per minute.

<h3>What is ventricular heartbeat?</h3>

Extra heartbeats known as premature ventricular spasms (PVCs) start within one of the brain's two lower pump chambers (ventricles). The normal pulse rhythm is disrupted by these extra beats, which can occasionally make the chest feel as though it is fluttering or skipping beats.

<h3>What is a normal ventricular?</h3>

The heart's left ventricle serves as its primary pumping chamber. It forces air blood up into the aorta, the main artery in your body, to supply the rest of your body. Based on the American Heart Association, a typical ejection fraction ranges from 50% to 75%. An ejection fraction that is on the edge can be from 41% and 50%.
