<span>First, the atomic number is equal to the number of protons. Also, the mass number is protons plus neutrons, as electrons weigh so little that they are not included. So Atom A has 19 protrons and 21 neutrons, while Atom B has 20 protons and 20 neutrons. Answer A and B are not true because Atom A has 1 less proton than Atom B. Answer C is not correct because nucleons are either protons or neutrons, which both atoms have an equal number of, as they have a mass of 40. Therefore, the answer must be B.</span>

A measuring cylinder contains 40 cm3 of water. When a stone of mass 69 g is dropped into the water, the stone sinks and the wate
rjkz [21]

Answer: 2.3 g cm^3

Explanation: In this case the rise in level of water is same as the volume occupied by the stone.

a) Volume occupied by the stone = 70 cm^3 – 40 cm^3= 30 cm^3

b) Density = mass/volume

                  = 69g/30 cm^3 = 2.3 g cm^3

Why are offspring of organisms that reproduce sexually not genetically identical to their parents
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

The offspring of organisms that is reproduce through sexually are not genetically identical to their parents because the offspring contains genes from two parents.

Explanation:

Identical offspring is only formed when offspring is produced from one parent through asexual reproduction such as building, binary fission and fragmentation. In sexual reproduction, offspring is produced by the mating of two organisms i. e. male and female organism. That's why genes of offspring are different from their parents and offspring is not identical to parents.
