Remember that the number of electrons are equal to the number of protons, and to find the number of protons you have to look and see the atomic mass of the atom is equal to the number of protons, and to find the number of neutrons you have too subtract the atomic mass to the atomic number.
Example:
You want to find out how many protons, neutrons, and electrons are in Platinum:
- Atomic number is equal to the number of protons:
- So platinum has 78 protons and electrons.
- Subtract atomic mass to atomic number:
(forgetting about the decimals)
So platinum has "78 protons, and electrons, and has 117 neutrons."
Hope this helps!
The answer is D, increasing genetic variation
Answer:
The modern evolutionary synthesis defines evolution as the change over time in this genetic variation. The frequency of one particular allele will become more or less prevalent relative to other forms of that gene.
Explanation:
A substantial part of the phenotypic variation in a population is caused by genotypic variation.
<u>Evolution is sometimes a controversial:</u>
Evolution is the most scientific explanation about how the life forms of earth originated and turned into the form that we see today.
I don’t think there should be a controversy because there is no other explanation that proves to be more logical than the theory of evolution. Evolution is a theory that has several supporting proofs and the theory itself was formed after several years of detailed study and observation.
I don’t think alternatives to evolution should be taught at schools. Alternative theories to evolution are based on various religious beliefs which lack a scientific basis.
Schools should be a place that enables students to do productive scientific thinking and teaching alternatives to evolution wouldn’t be a good idea.
