The Demand for bonds
an increase in the interest rate makes bonds more attractive, so its leads people to hold more of their wealth in bonds, as opposed to money.
However, you also learned that an increase in the interest rate reduced the price of bonds.
How can an increase in the interest rate make bonds more attractive and reduce their price?

What anchors it there to that receptor? Salt bridges? Hydrogen bonds? What kind of chemistry bonds? A source would be awesome as well.

John asked:
My goal is long-term growth because I have a stable and highly paid job. I want to use bonds to diversify my stock portfolio. Quality (low default rate), low cost, and tax efficiency are the most important to me.
I’m considering Vanguard or Fidelity bond index funds for their low cost and diversification.
I’m also considering IBond (US Saving Bond Series I at TreasuryDirect.gov) for its tax deferral, tax-exemption when redeemed for my education, and guaranteed principal plus interests at maturity.
How do you invest in bonds in your taxable accounts? Why?
