Answer:

1. ionic bonds;

2. salt

Explanation:

Ionic bonding is a case of chemical bond that produces two oppositely charged ions, it occurs where there is the complete transfer of valence electron(s) between atoms. In the case of ionic bonds, the metal loses electrons to become a positively charged cation, and the nonmetal receives the electrons to become a negatively charged anion.

While salt is a mineral that is comprised mainly of sodium chloride (NaCl)

Pigeon breeders prize certain looks of their pigeons. They know that pairing certain pigeons results in offspring that exemplify
sweet [91]

Answer:

Option B, Observation 2

Explanation:

The four main observation of Darwin’s areas follows –  

Observation 1 – Variation occurs in the species with time leading to evolution. Offspring of two parents vary distinctly in traits such as height, color, weight etc. These variations are also affected by the surrounding environment

Observation 2-  

Based on observation 1, Darwin concluded that offspring inherit traits from their parents. These traits improve the odds of survival and only genetic traits will be passed. Traits developed in an individual due to environment will not be passed on.

Observation 3 –  

Offspring compete among themselves to survive.

Observation 4

The fittest among the competing species for survival will survive and pass on its traits to the next generation.

Since here the Pigeon breeders want to exemplify the looks (a genetic trait) of  parents to their offspring, observation 2 applies here

Hence, observation b is correct

The r group of an amino acid would need to have what characteristic to be located in a cell membrane?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

The R group should have the ability to form hydrogen bonds.

The R-group take a lot of different chemical forms and can be acidic, basic, polar or non polar. Amino acids that are either acidic or basic consequently have either positive or negative charge. These types of R-groups are stabilized when surrounded by water.

The equation y = 8x + 12, where x is the number of hours and y is the total cost, represents what the surf instructor charges fo
irinina [24]
Simple problem my friend!

First we must replace X with -2,-1,0,1,2
then we plug in -2 in X. 8*-2 is -16 and adding 12 gives us a co ordinate of (-2,-4) now this is not enough so now we must do -1. 8*-1 is -8, + 12 gives us 4. so now our second co ordinate is (-1,4). i will do 1 more co ordinate and then you should be able to finish the problem by yourself :) we now plug in 0 to replace X. 8*0 is 0, easy and 0+12 is 12. so the third co ordinate is (0,12) when you have put all the dots on the graph be sure to draw a line through them and by the way, this is not a biology question lol, good luck!
