Answer:

20%

Explanation:

Okay so the phrase apples in trees ( Adenine & Thymine ) and cars in garages  (Cytosine & Guanine ) can help in this situation.

Since Thymine is 30%, Adenine will also be 30%. This gives you 60% of the DNA sample.

You have 40% left of the DNA sample so they must be Cytosine and Guanine.

Divide 40% by 2 and you get 20%. So you have 20% Guanine and 20% Cytosine.

Hope it helps!

Uranium has atomic number 92. Its most common isotope is 238U, but the form used in nuclear bombs and nuclear power plants is 23
Yakvenalex [24]

Explanation:

Atomic Number = Number of protons

Mass Number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

Isotopes are simply atoms of an element with the same number of protons and different number of neutrons.

First Isotope -- 238U

Number of neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number

Number of neutrons =  238 - 92 = 146

Second Isotope -- 235U

Number of neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number

Number of neutrons =  235 - 92 = 143
