Neon is a member of the noble gas family. Other elements in this family includes <span>helium, argon, krypton, xenon, </span>and <span>radon. </span>These gases are in Group 18 (VIIIA) of the periodic table. The periodic table is a chart that shows how chemical elements are related to each other. The noble gases are sometimes called the inert gases. This name comes from the fact that these elements do not react very readily. In fact, compounds exist for only three noble gases—krypton, radon, and xenon. Chemists have yet to prepare compounds of helium, neon, or argon.
Neon was discovered in 1898 by British chemists William Ramsay (1852-1916) and Morris Travers (1872-1961). It occurs naturally in the atmosphere, but only in very small amounts.

3.Even though there are some dna traces in the mitochondria,it’s won’t really be tested for gcse and mostly the DNAs are found in the nucleus of the cell.
Answer:
The correct answer is option d, that is, endocytosis.
Explanation:
A procedure in which a component gains entry within the cell without getting passed through the cell membrane is termed as endocytosis. In this process, the cell captivates the substances from the external of the cell by engulfing and combining them with its plasma membrane.
The process is further differentiated into three distinct kinds. These are phagocytosis, pinocytosis, and receptor-mediated endocytosis.
