Two models of molecules are shown. Two models of molecules. One on left is made of one carbon and one oxygen atom. One on right is made of one carbon and two oxygen atoms. What is true about the molecules shown in the models? A. They are molecules of the same substance. B. They are molecules of two substances with the same properties. C. They are molecules that join together. D. They are molecules containing the same kind of atoms.

Answer/Explanation:

CO and CO2 are both carbon poisoning. They both are odorless, colorless, and potentially deadly. But the chemical difference(extra oxygen molecule) causes it to be a different substance. CO is carbon monoxide while CO2 is carbon dioxide. CO2 is common because it is what we exhale after a breath, it is used to keep plants alive. On the other hand CO is caused by gas emissions and lack of oxygen. They may sound the same but they are just two different molecules containing the same types of atoms.

not necessarily. higher fitness requires the organism to be reproductive successful. for example, an organism at age 10 with 15 offspring is much more fit than an organism at age 15 with only 5 offspring.
