Which of the following does not accurately describe the forces that exist with an atom?

Answer: Electrons positioned closer to the nucleus have a greater attraction to the protons and are more likely to be discharged from the atom than electrons farther away.

Explanation: The electrons being negatively charged repel each other due to like charges. The protons being positively charged are attracted towards the negatively charged electrons.

The electrons which are near to nucleus are more tightly held by the protons and thus are more difficult to remove from the atom. The electrons which are far from the nucleus are less tightly held and are easily removed from the atom.

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An atom consists of three sub-atomic particles which are electrons, protons and neutrons.

As electrons are negatively charges, protons are positively charged and neutrons have no charge.

And since, electrons revolve around the nucleus (nucleus contains both protons and neutrons) so, there exists a strong force of attraction between the protons and electrons near the nucleus.

Hence, electrons near the nucleus are difficult to discharge.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement electrons positioned closer to the nucleus have a greater attraction to the protons and are more likely to be discharged from the atom than electrons farther away, does not accurately describe the forces that exist with an atom.

The clear protein of an egg become opaque and firm when cooked because the heat CHANGES THE PROTEIN STRUCTURE BY DENATURING THE PROTEIN.
Each enzymes has its own range of temperature at which it remains active, when this temperature is exceeded the protein becomes denatured and loses its three dimensional structure which determines its functions.

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Yes, Mrs Green is correct that Belle is her biological daughter

Explanation:

According to this question, Mr. and Mrs. Green is said to have a daughter, Georgia while Mr. and Mrs. Blue is said to have a daughter, Belle. Both daughters were born the same day. Hence, a controversy occured as Mrs. Green thinks that Belle is her biological daughter.

Based on the blood analysis, the following were obtained:

Mr. Green: Type A

Mrs. Green: Type A

Georgia: Type A

Mr. Blue: Type AB

Mrs. Blue: Type A

Belle: Type O

The genotype of the following blood types is as follows:

Type A - iAiA or iAi

Type B - iBiB or iBi

Type O - ii

Type AB - iAiB

From the analysis of blood types of Mr and Mrs Green, which are both type A, they can possibly produce a child with type A.

However, from the analysis of Mr. and Mrs. Blue, it is impossible to have a child with blood type O. However it is possible for Mr and Mrs. Green if they are both heterozygous (iAi × iAi). The punnet square is attached. Hence, Mrs Green is correct about her claim since Mr. and Mrs. Blue cannot have a child with blood type A.
