Answer:

Explanation:

Calorie is a common term used to describe the amount of energy that can be derived from food products.

We quantify foods based on the calories of energy they possess. A high calorific food will yield more energy to the body and is often desired for intense physical activities.

Calorie is defined as the amount of heat energy needed to raise the temperature of 1g of a substance by 1°C.

Food calories slightly differs in definition and they imply the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1kg of water by 1°C.

If an organism starts from only one cell,how do we get different body parts and organs

Vladimir [108]

Every cell has chromosomes in its nucleus. In a human cell,
there are 26 of them. AND ... lined up on every chromosome
are thousands and thousands of GENES. Those carry the
instructions for what kind of organ or bone or tissue or hair
this cell will be used to build, how the structure will work, how
tall you will be, what color your eyes will be, how deep your
voice will be, and what illnesses you will have.

Every cell has the complete set of instructions in it. In the past
several years, we have just started to be able to read them, and
extraordinary progress has been made. There's an awful long way
still left to go.

Atom X contains seven protons and seven neutrons. atom Z contains seven protons and eight neutrons. which of the following state

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

The correct answer is option A: they are isotopes.

Explanation:

From atom X we know that the number of protons is 7 and the number of neutrons is 7 and from atom Z we know that the number of protons is 7 and the number of neutrons is 8.

Since the number of protons of atom X and atom Z is the same, we have that atom X and atom Z is the same element. The difference in the number of neutrons tells us that atom X and atom Z are isotopes. Remember that an isotope is one element that has atoms with different numbers of neutrons.

The mass number is given by:

$A = p + n$

Where <em>n</em> is the number of neutrons and <em>p </em>is the number of protons.

For atom X and atom Z we have:

$A_{x} = 7 + 7 = 14$

$A_{z} = 7 + 8 = 15$

Hence, they have a different mass number.

We know that the element with 7 protons is nitrogen. The first isotope is $^{14}_{7}N$ and the second isotope is $^{15}_{7}N$ . Both isotopes are stables (they are not radioactive).

Therefore, the correct answer is option A: they are isotopes.

I hope it helps you!
