The number of protons in an atom determines the element (C). These protons reside in the nucleus of the atom. These elements are listed on the periodic table. Each element on the periodic table has a different atomic number or number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. Protons, neutrons and electrons are the three main particles that make up an atom. Protons are positively charged, electrons are negatively charged and neutrons are neutral i.e. they have no charge. In order to find the number of protons, neutrons and electrons in an atom, you can look up this information on the periodic table.

Compare and contrast what happens in mitosis and meiosis and discuss the importance of each process to a living organism.
avanturin [10]
Lets see both procedures:
<span>Mitosis is a process of cell duplication during which one cell gives rise to two genetically identical daughter cells. Meiosis, on the other hand, is a division of a germ cell involving two fissions of the nucleus and giving rise to four gametes, or sex cells, each possessing half the number of chromosomes of the original cell. Mitosis is used by single celled organisms to reproduce; it is also used for the organic growth of tissues, fibers, and mibranes. Meiosis is useful for sexual reproduction of organisms. I hope this can help greatly</span>
