Oxidation-reduction reactions (often called "redox" for short) are reactions that involve the transfer of electrons from one species to another. oxidation states, or oxidation numbers, allow chemists to keep track of these electron transfers. in general, one element will lose electrons (oxidation), with the result that it will increase in oxidation number, and another element will gain electrons (reduction), thereby decreasing in oxidation number. the species that is oxidized is called the reducing agent or reductant. the species that is reduced is called the oxidizing agent or oxidant. to sum up: oxidation = increase in oxidation state = loss of electrons = reducing agent reduction = decrease in oxidation state = gain of electrons = oxidizing agent part a which element is oxidized in this reaction? fe2o3+3co→2fe+3co2 enter the elemental symbol. view available hint(s) is oxidized part b which element is reduced in this reaction? 2hcl+2kmno4+3h2c2o4→6co2+2mno2+2kcl+4h2o enter the elemental symbol. view available hint(s) is reduced

The diagrams show objects’ gravitational pull toward each other. which statement describes the relationship between diagram x and y? gravity attracts only larger objects toward one another. gravity attracts larger objects only if they are close to one another. if the masses of the objects increase, then the force between them also increases. if distance between the objects increases, then the amount of force also increases.

Which of the following best supports the concept that genetic information is passed on to offspring from both of their parents, not just one?
