Answer : 1. "Electrons will be added to an atom starting from the lowest possible level or sublevel."
Explanation :
Answer: A) Electrons will be added to an atom starting from the lowest possible level or sublevel. Explanation: The Aufbau Principle states that in the ground state of an atom, an electron enters the orbital with lowest energy first and subsequent electrons are fed in the order of increasing energies.

Answer : 1. "Velocity"
Explanation :
Answer: A) Velocity Explanation: When traveling in a vacuum, electronic waves from the electromagnetic spectrum all travel at the same speed. Velocity is speed with direction, so they would all travel at the same velocity, realtively speaking. But frequency and wavelength are quite different.

Answer : 2. "OH-"
Explanation :
Answer: B) OH- Explanation: A conjugate acid, is a species formed by the reception of a proton (H+) by a base—in other words, it is a base with a hydrogen ion added to it. On the other hand, a conjugate base is what is left over after an acid has donated a proton during a chemical reaction. Hence, a conjugate base is a species formed by the removal of a proton from an acid. Because some acids are capable of releasing multiple protons, the conjugate base of an acid may itself be acidic. Represented as the following chemical reaction: Acid + Base ⇌ Conjugate Base + Conjugate Acid The water molecule is the conjugate acid of the hydroxide ion after the latter received the hydrogen proton donated by ammonium. On the other hand, ammonia is the conjugate base for the acid ammonium after ammonium has donated a hydrogen ion towards the production of the water molecule. We can also refer to OH- as a conjugate base of H2O, since the water molecule donates a proton towards the production of NH+4 in the reverse reaction, which is the predominating process in nature due to the strength of the base NH3 over the hydroxide ion.
Q: What happens during the process of translation? 1572 05b5cc63de4d2b4197774baee

Answer : 3. "The cell uses information from messenger RNA to produce proteins"
Explanation :
Answer: C) The cell uses information from messenger RNA to produce proteins Explanation: Translation is the process by which a protein is synthesized from the information contained in a molecule of messenger RNA (mRNA). During translation, an mRNA sequence is read using the genetic code, which is a set of rules that defines how an mRNA sequence is to be translated into the 20-letter code of amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. In short, during the process of translation source language text is conveyed to destination language.
