Introduction:
A substance that cannot be broken down to other substances by ordinary chemical process is known as element. Every element has the smallest unit of matter that retains the properties of an element. This smallest unit is called atom. An atom consists of electrons (e), protons (p) and neutrons (n). Different atoms have specific numbers of electrons, protons and neutrons. Nucleus of an atom contains protons and neutrons that constitute the mass of an atom. Electrons revolve around the nucleus in their orbit. The atomic number of an element is the number of protons in the nucleus of its atoms.

Fig.1:Concepts map of elements, atoms and molecules.
Explanation of Solution
(a)
Correct answer: Protons
Explanation: Proton is present in the nucleus of the atom and has positive charge. Hence the correct answer is proton.
(b)
Correct answer: Neutrons
Explanation: Neutron is present in the nucleus of the atom and is neutral due to no charge.
Hence, the correct answer is neutrons.
(c)
Correct answer: Electrons
Explanation: Electron revolves around the nucleus and has negative charge.
Hence, the correct answer is electrons.
(d)
Correct answer: Different isotopes
Explanation:
An isotope of an atom differs from neutron numbers and therefore by mass. Hence, the correct answer is different isotopes.
(e)
Correct answer: Covalent bond
Explanation: Electrons revolve around the nucleus in different electronic shells. The electrons present in the outermost shell are called valence electrons. The valence electron takes part in chemical bond formation by electron sharing known as covalent bond.
Hence, the correct answer is covalent bond.
(f)
Correct answer: Ionic bonds
Explanation: The transfer of electrons between two atoms creates ions and its attraction creates ionic bond. Hence, the correct answer is ionic bonds.
(g)
Correct answer: Polar covalent bonds
Explanation: Electron sharing between atoms creates covalent bond. The more electronegative atom attracts the bonded electrons towards itself. This results in unequal sharing of electrons and formation of polar covalent bond.
Hence, the correct answer is polar covalent bonds.
(h)
Correct answer: Hydrogen bonding
Explanation: Unequal sharing of electrons of covalent bond results in polar covalent bond. For example: Water molecule (H2O) consists of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. Oxygen atom shares one electron to each of the hydrogen atom and forms two covalent bonds. The oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen. It attracts the bonded electron towards itself. This induces partial positive charge on hydrogen atoms and partial negative charge on oxygen atom. So, water molecule attains polarity. Oxygen atom of water molecule form a weak bond called hydrogen bond with hydrogen atom of another water molecule. This makes water molecule to have unique qualities.
Hence, the correct answer is hydrogen bonding.

- A farmer has noticed that his soybean plants produce more beans in some years than others. He claims to always apply the same amount of fertilizer to the plants, but he suspects the difference in crop yield may have something to do with the amount of water the crops receive. The farmer has observed that the soybeans on his farm usually receive between 0 to 0.5 inches of water per day, but he is unsure of the optimal average daily amount of water with which to irrigate. 1. State a question that addresses the farmer’s problem 2. Conduct online research on “soybean crop irrigation" and record a brief summary of the findings 3.

Preliminary tests show that the drug seems to be fairly effective in about 75% of test subjects. The drug company thinks that the drug might be most effective in overweight individuals, but they are unsure to whom they should market the product.

Drug X was developed to reduce blurred vision in healthy patients, but the effectiveness had not been tested on those suffering from multiple sclerosis. A study was conducted to determine if Drug X is effective at reducing blurry vision in multiple sclerosis patients. To be considered effective, a drug must reduce blurred vision by more than 30% in patients. Researchers predicted that a 20 mg dose of the drug would be effective for treating blurred vision in multiple sclerosis patients by reducing blurred vision by more than 30%. Drug X was administered to groups of multiple sclerosis patients at three doses (10 mg/day, 20 mg/day, 30 mg/day) for three weeks. A fourth group of patients was given a placebo containing no drug X for the same length of time. Vision clarity was measured for each patient before and after the three-week period using a standard vision test. The results were analyzed and graphed (See Figure…arrow_forward
- Svp je voulais demander l aide pour mon exercicearrow_forwardImagine that you are a clinical geneticist. Your colleague is an oncologist who wants your help explaining the basics of genetics to their patient, who will be undergoing genetic testing in the coming weeks for possible acute myeloid leukemia (AML) induced by the radiation she had several years ago for breast cancer. Write a 1,050- to 1,225-word memo to your colleague. Include the following in your memo: An explanation of the molecular structure of DNA and RNA, highlighting both similarities and differences A description of the processes of transcription and translation An explanation of the differences between leading and lagging strands and how the DNA is replicated in each strand Reponses to the following common questions patients might ask about this type of genetic testing and genetic disorder: Does AML run in families? What genes are tested for?arrow_forwardRespond to the following in a minimum of 175 words: What are some potential consequences that could result if the processes of replication, transcription, and translation don’t function correctly? Provide an example of how you might explain these consequences in terms that patients might understand.arrow_forward
