Br-Br.

In Br2, two of the same atoms, pull on each side of the bond is equal making it as non-polar.

The other options all include a significantly more electronegative atom (the oxygens and the chlorine), so those bonds are all polar covalent.

To reduce the risk of bacterial contamination, many foods must be stored in the refrigerator and thus kept below 5 degrees Celsius. These foods are often classified as ‘high-risk foods’ and include – meat, poultry, dairy, seafood, eggs, smallgoods and cooked rice and pasta. This also refers to ready-to-eat foods that have high-risk foods as ingredients and include – casseroles, quiche, pasta salad, pizza, sandwiches and many cakes.

By keeping these high-risk foods under 5 degrees Celsius it stops them from entering the ‘danger-zone’ – temperatures between 5 degrees Celsius and 60 degrees Celsius. The danger-zone is the temperature zone which provides bacteria with the perfect environment to rapidly grow and multiply to numbers that cause food poisoning.

Glycolysis involves the breaking down of a sugar into more manageable compounds in order to produce energy.

The net end products of glycolysis are two Pyruvate, two NADH, and two ATP.

Most bacteria divide by binary fission, a form of cell division in which DNA replication and segregation occur simultaneously. This process involves active partitioning of the single bacterial chromosome and positioning of the site of septation.

Bacteria reproduce by binary fission. In this process the bacterium, which is a single cell, divides into two identical daughter cells.

Binary fission begins when the DNA of the bacterium divides into two replicates. The bacterial cell then elongates and splits into two daughter cells each with identical DNA to the parent cell. Each daughter cell is a clone of the parent cell.
