B & D

Protons and neutrons are energy particles found in the nucleus of atoms.

Explanation:

The forces that hold the protons and neutrons together in the nucleus are called strong nuclear forces. These forces are attractive over short distances and repulsive over long distances. This is why protons that are positively charged are held together in the nucleus  despite their repulsive tendencies. However, as the nucleus gets larger because of the larger number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus, the distance with which the string nuclear forces are attractive is surpassed.

The binding energy in the nucleus will, therefore, be surpassed by the repulsive forces of strong nuclear forces over long distances causing the atomic nucleus to lose some neutrons.

A small number of finches live in a protected bird sanctuary. Natural selection
Vlad [161]

Answer:

Natural selection  is least likely to occur in this population if:

  • The resources are continuously available

For a species to survive in an area, it is essential that the place has enough resources like nutrients, space, water etc. If these resources are available then there will be less chances of competition which will lead to lesser chances of natural selection.

  • The number of of death rates is equal to the number of of birth rates

In an balanced ecosystem, the number of birth rates is equal to the number of death rates for a population. If the number of death rates is lesser to the number of birth rates then the competition for resources will lead to natural selection.

When a cell does not contain a nucleus, where is the DNA?
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

The DNA in prokaryotes is contained in a central area of the cell called the nucleoid, which is not surrounded by a nuclear membrane. Many prokaryotes also carry small, circular DNA molecules called plasmids, which are distinct from the chromosomal DNA and can provide genetic advantages in specific environments.
