Answer; All the above
A) an atom seeks to fill its outer shell of electrons
B) an atom seeks to balance its positive and negative charges
C) the reaction will result in paired electrons
Explanation;
-In a chemical reaction, reactants contact each other, bonds between atoms in the reactants are broken, and atoms rearrange and form new bonds to make the products.
-During a chemical reaction an atom may lose of gain electrons resulting positive and negative ions (ionic bond formation) or may result to the paired electrons (sharing of electrons).
The principles of probability can be used for B. Predicting the traits of the offspring of genetic crosses.
Answer: B. Predict the traits of the offspring of genetic crosses.
Answer: D. It yields chromosomes that contain both maternal and paternal DNA.
Explanation:
The recombination or crossing over is a genetic process. It takes place during the Prophase I of meiosis. The homologous pair align and held together by synapsis. This results in the mixture of genes combination formed from both parents that can be represented as a single chromosome.
If the recombination do not occur then each chromosome will be either 100% maternal or paternal. Thus recombination assures the recombinant chromosomes which consists of genetic material from both parents. Thus the genetic diversity of offspring increases.
Classic conditioning
a learning process that occurs when two stimuli are repeatedly paired; a response that is at first elicited by the second stimulus is eventually elicited by the first stimulus alone.
