They undergo nuclear fission.
The right answer is 2.
The number of protons contained in a nucleus (called an atomic number) is characteristic of a chemical element. For a given atomic number, the number of neutrons defines different "types" of this element: isotopes. The variation of the number of protons of the nucleus of an atom, during a nuclear reaction for example, causes a change of the element studied.
Answer
No you did not lose weight.
Explanation:
Weight is the force acting on an object, Gravity is a force on earth which does not apply to the moon so your weight may change depending in where you are but your mass will stay the same because mass measures the matter of an object ITSELF! Have a nice day....
