Virty [35]3 years ago
8 0
Sulfur has an atomic number of 16, so it has 16 protons. protons + neutrons = atomic weight, which, in this case, is 35. So, 35-16=19.

<h2>ANSWER:</h2>

16 protons and 19 neutrons

<h2>EXPLANATION:</h2>

The atomic number or proton number of a chemical element is the number of protons located in the nucleus of an atom. It is same as the charge number of the nucleus

Sulfur possesses an atomic number of 16, so it owns 16 protons.

protons + neutrons = atomic weight,

35-16=19. So sulfur has 16 protons and 19 neutrons

Maggots feed on dead and decaying organisms for energy. What are maggots?
Vikentia [17]
Maggots consume dead or decaying organisms so they are classified as a decomposer.

Decomposition is a process by which organic substances, like leaves or dead animals, are broken down into simpler matter.
A lot of different types of organisms, called the decomposers, will consume the organic substances and continue an essential part of the nutrient cycle. These organisms can be both bacteria, fungi but can also be insects.

This is important for recycling the organic matter that occupies space in the biosphere and that way, continues the movement of energy and matter in ecosystems.
