Answer:

When a sodium atom transfers an electron to a chlorine atom, forming a sodium cation (Na+) and a chloride anion (Cl-), both ions have complete valence shells, and are energetically more stable. ... The reaction is extremely exothermic, producing a bright yellow light and a great deal of heat energy.

Answer:

Ionic bonds form when metals and non-metals chemically react. ... For example, in the reaction of Na (sodium) and Cl (chlorine), each Cl atom takes one electron from a Na atom. Therefore each Na becomes a Na+ cation and each Cl atom becomes a Cl- anion.

Mashutka [201]

Vaccines are a boon in eradicating various lethal diseases and increase the immunity of the people. The development of vaccines started with the understanding the cell itself, various pathways that regulate its fate. The immunology, a branch of biological science, gave the idea of the working of the defense or the immune system of the body, and of the various specia cells that function for it. This led us to the discovery of antibodies and antigens. Vaciines are artificial means of injecting antigens into the body to generate antibodies beforehand, so that the immune system remembers producing it at the time disease causing agent strikes us.

Thus, we can summarise that STEM research or core science research has led to innovations that have shaped our lives and lifestyle to contribute to an overall good social health.

Inessa05 [86]
The correct answer is antigens and epitope.
An antigen is a substance which triggers an immune response in an organism. This can be either a foreign substance, such as a pathogen, or a specific part of the host organism (in this case this is an autoimmune response). The presence of an antigen activates a specific part of the immune system, called antibody. Each antigen has a specific antibody, which is tailored by the immune system accordingly. More specifically, the antibody has a specific structure, called paratope, which is complementary and binds like a key to a specific structure of the antigen, called epitope.
