Answer:

It will lose 1 electron

Its charge will be 1+, or simply (+)

Explanation:

Lithium it's located in the group one of the periodic table, the Alkali, and by rule, all Alkali are always gonna loose one electron during a chemical reaction to form a positive ion.

The charge is explained by the fact that, if lithium looses one electron, then it wi have less number of electrons than protons, meaning that, if there's a higher number of protons (positive charge), then the charge will be positive. And since the atom loosed one electron then its charge will be 1+

For example, during a chemical reaction calcium is always gonna loose 2 electrons, so its charge's gonna be Ca2+

the eastern kingbird hunts by catching flying insects in mid-air, an approach which requires impressive and energetic acrobatic
tangare [24]

It is safe to assume that the eastern kingbird will have a <u>type 2 </u><u>functional response </u><u>to an increase in </u><u>prey abundance</u><u>.</u>

The functional response, in ecology, is a data-based description of the behavior of certain animals' consumption rates in response to a change in prey density. This can be of three kinds:

  • Type 1: An increase in consumption
  • Type 2: A decrease in consumption
  • Type 3:  Decreased consumption, followed by a quick increase.

The Eastern kingbird is likely to follow a <u>type 1 </u><u>functional response</u> to the presence of more prey. The reason for this, aside from it being the most common response, is that the eastern kingbird consumes insects, which do not provide a great amount of energy, in a way that consumes much energy. Therefore it is logical to assume that the kingbird will consume more prey to better sustain its rigorous feeding habits.
