How does water form during respiration?
Oxygen is reduced, gaining electrons and hydrogen ions
Why the cell has both NAD and NADP?
They both help to transfer or get rid of electrons produced during cellular metabolism.
The total changes that take place during physiological processes are called?
Metabolism
What is an electron called in the outermost energy level?
They are called valence electrons, and they are responsible for an atom's chemical properties. During a chemical reaction, the valence electrons are the only part of an atom that participates.
Which electron on an atom is the most likely one to be removed during a chemical reaction?
Electrons called valence electrons are most likely removed. These are the outermost energy level electrons.
During ionic bonding what is the reduction and oxidization?
Simply, reduction is the gaining of electrons and oxidation is the donating of electrons.

Are exchanged or shared during the formation of a chemical bond?
They are the electrons in the (outer) valence shell
What is the transfer of electrons from a cloud to the ground during a lightning strike?
what is this called when transfer of electrons from a cloud to the ground
Can your metabolism speed up during adolescence?
Metabolism can speed up during adolescence. This is one of the times during a life cycle where the metabolism works faster.
What happens during a chemical reaction that causes an ionic bond to form?
Two atoms who are looking to complete their outer orbit will share their electrons one losing electrons and becoming positive and one gaining Electrons becoming negative. Then the two are bonded together because opposites attract.
Why do some atoms gain electrons and other atoms lose electrons during ionic bonding?
be cause electron gaining atom is placed far to the atom s nueclius so that it does NT attract that at all ,&it escapes from the outermost orbital..........

What was the US policy called that was to prevent the Soviet Union from gaining control over the world during the Cold War?
containment
