Chemistry

Answer:

In beta decay, an electron is emitted.

Explanation:

Beta decay is a type of particle decay in which beta radiation is emitted. That is, an unstable nucleon (proton or neutron) emits a beta particle.

There are two forms of decay or beta particles, β - and β +, which respectively emit an electron or a positron.

That is, beta particles are particles of mass and charge equal to the electron (β-) or positrons, whose mass is equal to the electron but of opposite charge (β +) resulting from the transformation of the neutrons or protons of the nucleus when it is found in an excited state.

What caused the bonding of two atoms which undergo an ionic bond?
Keith_Richards [23]
C. As we know, an atom is made of three parts--protons (+), neutrons (core), and electrons (-) When one of these atoms loses one or more electron(s), it becomes a cation, or a positively charged ion. Inversely, when this atom gains a positively charged ion, [the atom] becomes a negatively charged atom, or an anion. The bond is made through electrostatic attraction, and a bond between these two "halves of a whole", it is known as an ionic bond.

This drawing shows a human body system.
White raven [17]

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

This question is incomplete because of the absence of the drawing  referred to in the question.

However, each option refers to a particular respiratory system and with the organs and the tissues mentioned here one can eventually identify which option is correct when the drawing is available.

A) The system described here is the cardiovascular system (or the circulatory system). This system involves the heart, blood vessels and the blood (which are what help in the transport of the materials mentioned in the question).

B) The system described here is the digestive system. This system involves the gastrointestinal tract and organs (that assist in the production/secretion or storage of chemicals that breakdown food into smaller pieces) such as the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, rectum and the anus.

C) The system described here is the skeletal system. This system involves all the bones and joint in the body (the skeleton) which also helps in protecting organs in the body.

D) The system described here is the Endocrine system. This system involves several internal glands (such as the thyroid gland and the adrenal glands) in the body.

NOTE: Identify which organ and/or tissue is present in the diagram and use that to select the appropriate option from the description of each of the options provided above.
