The correct response is:

**Electric fields of charged particles interact, bonding those with opposite charges.**

In terms of subatomic particles, this means that positively charged protons and negatively charged electrons create electric fields that enable the attraction necessary for bond formation. When bonds break, these interactions are disrupted.
