Question

What is hybridization and its advantages in point?

Answer 1

Answer:

Definition:

the process of an animal or plant breeding with an individual of another species or variety.

Advantages:

Advantages of hybridization include passing along favorable traits and prolonging the survival of a threatened or endangered species, but a disadvantage is that hybrid animals have more difficulty finding mates and successfully breeding. Hybridization occurs naturally and through human initiation. It sometimes creates dominant genes that help offspring survive, but more often fails to pass along life-sustaining genes

Answer 2

Explanation:

The main features of hybridization are as under :-

1. The number of hybrid orbitals is equal to the number of atomic orbital that get hybridised .

2. The hybridized orbitals are equivalent in energy and shape.

3. The hybrid orbitals and more effective in forming stable bonds than the pure atomic orbitals .

4. These hybrid orbitals are directed in space in some preferred direction to have minimum repulsion between electron pairs and thus a stable arrangement is obtained. Therefore , the type of hybridization indicates the geometry of the molecules .
