Answer:

D) Because it can share four electrons in covalent bond.

Explanation:

The correct option is Option D.

Because it can share four electrons in covalent bond.

All other are incorrect because,

A = it can share four electrons in ionic bond.

Carbon share its electron and form covalent bond. It can not form ionic bond.

B = Because it can share six electrons inmetallic bond.

It is also incorrect because metallic bond is  only formed by the metals and also there are only 4 valance electrons in carbon not six.

Option C = Because it can share four electrons in hydrogen bonds.

It is also incorrect because carbon can not form hydrogen bonds.

Difference between specialist and generalist species and their niches?? Example of both?? A little help please
igor_vitrenko [27]

A generalist species is able to survive in a wide variety of environmental conditions and can make use of lots of different resources. Generalist species have a big niche. Humans, rabbits, house flies, and raccoons would all fall under the generalist species list.

A specialist species can only thrive is a small variety of environmental conditions and/or only has a limited diet. Specialist species have a small niche. Pandas, koalas, and salamanders would all fall under the specialist species list.

The genes dumpy (dp), clot (cl), and apterous (ap) are linked on chromosome II of Drosophila. In a series of two-point mapping c
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

The order of genes is- dp-cl-ap

Explanation:

The genes a be mapped on chromosome on the basis of the recombination frequency as the recombination shows that is the genes are linked or not.  In genetic mapping, 1 per cent recombination frequency is considered as 1 cM or map distance.

In the given question, the three gene distance are provided on the basis of which the gene can be mapped in the following manner:

1. Take the higher value of gene distance that is 42 m.u and plot them on the line,

2. now place second-highest value on the line that is 39 m.u.

3. The gene will be arranged in the order of dp-cl-ap.

4. dp--³---cl-----------³⁹---------------------ap.

Thus, dp-cl-ap is correct.
