Answer:

1.38269 amu

Explanation:

Gadolinium-157 has 64 protons and 93 neutrons. Recall that mass defect his the difference between the calculated mass and the actual mass of the atom. This difference in calculated mass and actual mass exists because some mass is converted to the binding energy of the nucleus.

Mass of 64 protons= 64 × 1.007825 = 64.5008 amu

Mass of 93 neutrons= 93 × 1.008665 = 93.805845 amu

Mass of neutrons and protons= 64.5008 + 93.805845 = 158.306645 amu

Mass defect= 158.306645 - 156.92396 = 1.38269 amu

Therefore, mass's defect of gadolinium-157 is 1.38269 amu

Fossils are the preserved remains or traces of animals, plants, and other organisms from the past.

Fossils are important evidence for evolution because they show that life on earth was once different from life found on earth today.

Usually only a portion of an organism is preserved as a fossil, such as body fossils (bones and exoskeletons ), trace fossils (feces and footprints), and chemofossils (biochemical signals).

Paleontologists can determine the age of fossils using methods like radiometric dating and categorize them to determine the evolutionary relationships between organisms.
