What must be done for the researcher to accurately measure the dependent variable?

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.

Evolution acts upon the population of organisms and not on each individual organism

Which group of protists would be most likely to have cilia as adults and why? (1 point)the sporozoan protists would since they have to spread their spores around.the heterotrophic protists would since they use them to gather food.the parasitic protists would since they need to find other organisms to attack.the autotrophic protists would since they must move to find light.
