As before, use the Automator to collect butterfly population persistence data from the simulation for each of your three patch connection options. You will need to decide whether to focus on extinction rate or average butterfly count (or both) as a measure of persistence. You will also need to decide how many runs to conduct, and how long each run should be. [ 8.1 ] Briefly describe your experimental methods:

What best explains whether bromine (br) or neon (ne) is more likely to form a covalent bond? bromine forms covalent bonds because it has seven valence electrons, but neon has eight valence electrons and already fulfills the octet rule. bromine forms covalent bonds because it has many electron shells, but neon has only two electron shells and is tightly bound to its electrons. neon forms covalent bonds because it can share its valence electrons, but bromine has seven valence electrons and can gain only one more electron. neon forms covalent bonds because it has only two electron shells, but bromine has many electron shells and will lose electrons in order to fulfill the octet rule.
