Answer:
A radical is a group of atoms of elements carrying a charge, e.g., chlorate [ClO3–]. Radicals or ions are formed by losing or gaining electrons. When an electron is gained the group of atoms acquire a negative charge and is called a negative radical or negative ion.
Answer:
This work was done in the European plum (Prunus domestica). The gene for PPV coat protein was separated from the PPV virus and inserted into the plum DNA, which was then regenerated and grown into complete plum trees. These trees now had the additional gene in their DNA and became resistant to PPV.
Answer:-
Alpha decay
Explanation:-
Uranium 238 has atomic number 92 and mass number 238.
Thorium 234 has atomic number 90 and mass number 234.
So, the change in atomic number as uranium 238 disintegrates into thorium234 = 92 – 90 = 2
So, the change in mass number as uranium 238 disintegrates into thorium234= 238 – 234 = 4
We know that when an alpha particle is emitted, the mass number decreases by 4 and the atomic number decreases by 2.
So when an atom of uranium 238 undergoes radioactive decay to form an atom of thorium-234, alpha decay has occurred.
