Answer: protons

Explanation: atoms of each element contain a characteristic number of protons

Marrrta [24]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

the answer is protons

Explanation: Atoms of each element contain a characteristic number of protons. In fact, the number of protons determines what atom we are looking at (e.g., all atoms with six protons are carbon atoms); the number of protons in an atom is called the atomic number. In contrast, the number of neutrons for a given element can vary.

1.) What gives water all its properties? 2.) What type of bond joins H2O to another H2O and forms cohesion? 3.) What property of
Yuri [45]

Answer:

1. polarity

2. hydrogen bonding

3. High heat capacity

4. Adhesion

5. polarity

6. surface tension

7. high heat vaporization

8. hydrogen bonds form a rigid and stable network

9. Water is a polar substance and fat is a nonpolar substance.

10. Cohesion

Explanation:

Water is a polar molecule that is held together by hydrogen bonds to form strong cohesive forces. This accounts for the surface tension in water. Surface tension is the force acting on water that it makes to behave like a stretched elastic skin.

The polarity of water accounts for the fact that it is found in several parts of the body where it largely plays the role of a polar solvent.

High heat capacity of water enables it to function well in the area of thermoregulation in the body. High heat vaporization accounts for the fact that water helps maintain extreme temperature changes in an area.

When in solid state, the hydrogen bonded network in water becomes rigid and forms a very stable network of water molecules. Being polar, water does  not interact with fat because like dissolves like.

In plants, the attachment of water to plant roots is known as adhesion and is necessary for the capillary movement of nutrients to plants via the root.

Airida [17]

The pathway between the ventral tegmental area (VTA) and the Nucleus Accumbens is critical for the addiction process because lesions to this pathway eliminate addiction. It is a part of the brain.

<h3>What is the nucleus accumbens?</h3>

The nucleus accumbens refers to a part of the forebrain located in the hypothalamus.

The nucleus accumbens is an interface between motivation (i.e., stimuli) and the corresponding action (response).

The nucleus accumbens is fundamental in different responses such as, for example, rewards, stressful situations, drug behavior, etc.
